Brain Injury Attorney in The Villages

Traumatic brain injuries range wildly in how they occur and how severely they impact the victim of the injury. The majority of TBIs are mild concussions which temporarily impact a person’s mental status or consciousness, according to the CDC. Severe TBIs will cause an extended period of unconsciousness, memory loss, and other forms of cognitive disability.

The leading causes of TBI, according to data gathered by the CDC, include:

• Falls;
• Unintentional Blunt Trauma;
• Motor Vehicle Crashes;
• Assaults; and
• Sports and Recreational Injuries.

A TBI can result in a variety of physical and psychological symptoms, and not all of them appear immediately after the accident. However, the most common symptoms of a severe traumatic brain injury, according to the Mayo Clinic, include:

• Loss of consciousness;
• Persistent headache;
• Vomiting and nausea;
• Convulsions;
• Seizures;
• Dilation of pupils;
• Fluids draining from nose or ears;
• Loss of coordination;
• Confusion;
• Coma;
• Slurred speed; and
• Agitation.

If you have experienced any of these symptoms following an injury to the head, visit your doctor immediately.
