  1. 6 Common Injuries Encountered During Construction Accidents

  2. When some construction takes place, any lack in proper precautions may result in many disastrous accidents. And most of the sufferers are the workers who are involved in such constructions. If you or any of your loved ones encounter a construction accident, you can always consult a good construction accident lawyer and file a suit against the guilty. Here are some of the common construction accidents injuries that people normally come across:

  3. Broken Bones Fractures: A common form of construction accident is when a person falls from an elevated surface and gets a part of his/her skeletal system broken. And any such bone fractures are more fatal for the aged workers, consuming a lot of time and money for the recovery.

  4. Muscle And Ligament Sprains: Construction accidents can also result in muscle and ligament tears which occur due to a fall or twist of some body part. These too take a lot of time to get recovered, but sometimes restrict the body movements of a person to a certain level.

  5. Neck and Spine Injuries: These injuries could range from being minor to very, very severe. They occur due to a person falling from a height, some major blow or a heavy object falling directly on the head of the person. Spine injuries can even lead to partial or complete paralysis.

  6. Hand And Brain Injuries: The severest injuries could occur on the head when it affects the brain of a person. The person can get paralysed, lose his/her memory or even lose his/her life in absence of proper safety equipment.

  7. Burns: Construction sites also contain a lot of nasty chemicals, acids and fire equipment such as welding torches etc. Any such unkempt material can lead to severe burns on the body of a person and these could be extremely terrible.

  8. Loss Of Senses: Many times, construction accidents may even result in loss of a person’s viewing or hearing ability, causing temporary or permanent damage. This could result due to a tumble of the person from a height, or a heavy object falling directly on the head of the person.
