Head and Brain Injuries

by Jeffrey S. Glassman

Injuries to the head and brain are commonly seen in car accidents and are among the most serious injuries that can occur. Unlike a broken bone or a muscle sprain, these injuries do not typically have a clear course of recovery and can be extremely complicated to treat, even under expert medical care.

Causes and Symptoms of Head Injuries

A traumatic brain injury, otherwise known as a TBI, is a particularly severe head injury. The causes of these vary, but they may be the result of a fall, motor vehicle accident, or an attack. A TBI may be experienced in a car accident when a person’s head collides with the steering wheel or dash inside their vehicle during the impact of the crash. The most common symptom of a TBI is a headache experienced shortly after the trauma. Other symptoms include dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, light sensitivity and inability to focus. The symptoms of a TBI may not be readily apparent for several days. Symptoms can seem minimal at first and then become progressively worse over the course of days or weeks if left untreated.
