Injuries to the head and brain can take a massive toll on a person physically, emotionally, and financially. Although many of these injuries can be treated or at least managed, many victims of head and brain injuries end up facing life-long changes to their lifestyle or professional aspirations.

However, the inescapable practical burdens of these injuries don’t have to overwhelm an injured individual in recovery. If injured because of another person’s errors, there may be compensation for treatment and recovery costs.

Ahead or brain injury may leave you or your household with considerable medical and out-of-pocket expenses.

These costs may be covered through a compensation lawsuit against the person or group responsible for your injuries.

Consequences of a Head or Brain Injury

When a person sustains an injury to the head or brain, the results of the injury may leave them with severe disabilities or permanent disfigurement.

The consequences of these injuries may include the following health problems:

  • Loss of cognitive abilities due to brain damage
  • Loss of speech functions due to brain damage
  • Loss of speech functions due to an injury to the mouth
  • Loss of motor skills due to brain damage
  • Loss of memory due to brain damage
  • Loss of sensory abilities due to brain damage or direct trauma to the sensory organ
  • Permanent disfigurement of the head or face
  • Bone fractures, including the bones of the face or skull

These serious health concerns may require emergency medical care, which can prove extremely expensive for an injured individual’s household to handle.
