The seasoned attorney will chalk out a game plan to help you recover incurred and future medical expenses.In United States, annually over 1.7 million people suffer traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), many of whom are children or seniors citizens.
Any type of head injury due to a fall, a heavy instrument, or an accident can lead to permanent brain injury, leaving the victim with a lifelong handicap. Thus, it is important for you to know your legal rights if such an incident ever happens to you. Generally, when someone is injured on the head, the internal injury symptoms may not surface immediately.
Thus, a serious traumatic brain injury or TBI can be easily overlooked until it suddenly hits like a freight train later on! A TBI has the power to change the victim’s life forever—permanently damaging relationships, earning capacity, mental functions, and the entire lifestyle.
The clear sign of TBI on an affected victim
The person suffering from a TBI is bound to display one or more of the following symptoms even if the signs show up some days after the injury incident. TBI can occur in two distinct conditions, a mild condition and a moderate to severe condition.
If a victim is suffering from mild TBI, then he or she will display the following symptoms: coordination dysfunction, sleepiness or mental depression, mood swings, memory loss, incoherent speech, loss of senses, vomiting, and seizures. The marvelous news is that victims of mild TBI, with proper care, can regain a normal life after the treatment.
If a victim experiences moderate to severe TBI, then the following symptoms will continue to surface one by one over a long period of time: leaking fluids from ear drums, draining nose, dilated pupils, mental depression, frequent vomiting, difficulty in physical movements, confused thoughts, and irritability. Depending on the severity of the injury, the symptoms may appear even after weeks. The family members of the TBI victim should closely monitor any physical or behavioral change in the victim and inform the doctor immediately.
