We all know how important our brain is for everyday life. Your brain controls your entire body and when this central system is damaged your entire system could shut down. There are a number of accidents that can result in trauma to the head. Slip and fall accidents, sporting accidents, workplace accidents, pedestrian accidents and car and truck accidents are some of the more common accidents that can result in a serious head injury.

Common Head Injuries
Most head injuries are caused by intense impact to the facial area including the following:
- Closed head injury – these are generally bumps or blows to the head during a sharp jerk. If the brain is jolted enough in the skull, you may experience bleeding, swelling and other serious complications. It is best to see a doctor as soon as possible
- Open head injury – these are much more serious and will usually involve blood as the skull breaks and penetrates the brain. Immediate medical attention is required and often the results of this type of head trauma are fatal.
- Concussions – a blow to the head, many people walk away from a concussion with just a minor headache. However, it is essential that a doctor checks you over if you are concussed.
- Skull fracture – a skull fracture is an open head injury which often occurs after a major blow to the head, such as during a car accident.
- Traumatic brain injury – these head injuries may leave you permanently disabled
- Subdural hemotoma and cerebral anoxia
You may not be able to continue working or you may need to step down from your position if you have suffered from a head injury. You may experience intense pain or headaches or you may lose the ability to function completely. You may become paralyzed or suffer from a loss of coordination. You may lose your vision and control of your body. You may lose your memory and your personality. You may never be the same again. This can be frustrating and devastating not only to the injured party, but also to family and friends. A brain injury lawyer can help you find the answers to those unresolved questions so you can move forward with your family.
