Brain Injuries And Post-Concussive Disorder
Brain injuries cannot be “seen” in the same way as a broken leg or arm. If you have been in a collision in Charlotte or elsewhere in North Carolina that involved a brain injury, you are entitled to sue for full compensation for your injuries.
Mild Brain Injuries Can Have Severe Consequences Brain injuries occur from either an open or closed trauma. The former is an injury that, in some manner, breaches the skull cavity - some object or a fragment of skull bone penetrates into the brain.
The latter is an injury to the brain when there is no opening or fracture of the skull, but the brain is nonetheless bruised or injured by being forcibly thrust up against the inside of the skull or by the acceleration and deceleration forces of the impact. Open trauma to the brain tends to be the most severe; but, as noted, even a brain injury that does not rupture the skull and is only “moderate” can cause post-concussive disorder and other long-term health problems.
Post-Concussive Disorder Medical research has shown that, in 10 to 15 percent of cases, even mild or moderate brain trauma - such as a concussion - can lead to various long-term medical conditions such as post-concussive disorder syndrome and encephalopathy and can aggravate or bring on neurodegeneration. Brain injuries can be caused by whiplashing of the head or neck and blast/explosive wave pressure.
Common Symptoms of a Post-Concussive Disorder
➢ Inability to sleep or irregular sleep patterns ➢ Worry and anxiety; Headaches ➢ Eye twitching; Word-finding difficulties ➢ Learning and memory impairment ➢ Reduced psychomotor speed ➢ Lack of or inability to concentrate and focus ➢ Atypical head and neck pain; Emotional distress ➢ Other psychological and mood disorders.
Types of Trauma That Cause Brain Injury ● Accidental falls resulting in the head striking the floor ● Collisions, crashes and similar ● Violence
How Your Skilled Lawyers Prove Your Case? To prove negligence, in North Carolina, the victim must prove four elements: (1) Duty (2) Breach of that duty (3) Causation (4) Injury
