What Are Traumatic Brain Injuries? 

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are damage to the brain as the result of blunt force impact or penetration of the skull. Damage to the brain can be caused by resulting brain swelling and hemorrhages, concussions, or fractured skulls, disrupting the brain’s ability to function. This can lead to temporary or permanent neurological damage, traumatic epilepsy, and other serious debilitating effects. After a severe head injury, you may suffer extensive damage to your quality of life, experience severe pain, and require surgeries, other treatments, or rehabilitation. Medical care for traumatic brain injuries can cause catastrophic medical bills and lost wages. 

Open & Closed Brain Injuries

TBIs can be classified as open or closed. Closed-head injuries stem from the brain violently striking the skull wall when hit or from physical wounds to the head. Open-head brain injuries occur when the skull bones are fractured or broken causing damage to the brain’s soft tissue underneath. 

Examples of TBIs that our attorneys have handled include:

  • Concussions. These are minor injuries caused by the head or brain being shaken or from suffering blunt force trauma. 
  • Contusions. Traumatic force bruises the brain’s soft tissue; this causes leaking of the small blood vessels that create pressure in the skull.
  • Penetrating brain injuries. When an object pierces the skull reaching the brain, it can cause extensive neurological damage.
  • Anoxic injuries. These are caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain. Brain cells then die resulting in traumatic brain damage. 

Even if you believe you have suffered only a minor concussion, you should always take any brain injury seriously. Effects may not manifest immediately and damage can be more severe than you understand. Ensuring you have proper medical attention in the aftermath of any blow to the head is essential. 

How a Traumatic Brain Injury Can Affect Your Life

The temporary or permanent effects of a brain injury can vary from person to person, depending on the injury’s circumstances and severity.

These effects can include but are not limited to:

  • Memory loss
  • Personality changes
  • Mood swings
  • Seizures
  • Tremors
  • Speech problems
  • Vision impairment
  • Paralysis
  • Coma
  • Mobility impairment
  • Cognitive impairment, such as in reasoning, problem-solving, learning disabilities, and more
  • Depression, PTSD, and anxiety

These types of disabilities can totally disrupt your life, impair your ability to work and remain self-supporting, and require personal at-home assistance. Lack of income and spiraling expenses can lead to financial ruin without the resources needed to meet the demands of such a serious injury.
