TYPES OF HEAD INJURIES YOU CAN SUSTAIN FROM CAR ACCIDENTS
Head injuries are dangerous because the symptoms aren’t always clear. In general, symptoms include:
- Headache
- Memory loss
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Slurred speech
- Vomiting

By getting medical treatment you can improve your health outcomes, and create a paper trail of medical records tying your injuries to the date of the crash.
Head injuries usually appear as one of several common forms that differ in severity but all pose danger and potential long term health effects.
Concussions are caused by forces striking the head that make the brain impact the interior of the skull. This causes bruising and damage to the brain with the potential for lasting headaches and difficulty sleeping.
Piercing wounds to the head are especially dangerous. They occur when debris inside the vehicle, from the car body, or from the surrounding environment impacts the skull at high speeds causing penetration wounds to the head. These wounds pose the direct risk of massive bleeding as well as trauma to the brain with a range of devastating effects on one’s life.
Diffuse axonal injuries occur as a result of sudden rotating motion causes the brain structures to twist and tear. The potential lasting effects include nervous system damage.
