Dallas Auto Accident Lawyer Discusses Internal Injuries
Dallas, Tx, 09/16/2015 /SubmitPressRelease123/
Dallas car accident lawyer Amy Witherite helps clients who were injured in car crashes recover money for their injuries. Today, Ms. Witherite discusses internal injuries, a type of injury that may result from an auto collision. Internal injuries are serious injuries that require immediate medical attention as well as proper follow-up care.
Some internal injuries may have symptoms that show up immediately. In other cases, the symptoms may not appear immediately. If and when car accident victims do exhibit symptoms, they should immediately seek medical treatment. A medical team must perform testing to determine the source of the problem and then act quickly to prevent further complications. Internal injuries take several forms, including:
-
Broken ribs. Broken ribs are not only painful, but they can damage blood vessels and puncture lungs.
-
Internal bleeding. Trauma can cause blood vessels to rupture, causing bleeding that does not clot. Organ failure and even death may result if internal bleeding is not treated promptly.
-
Damage to internal organs. Multiple organs may be affected in serious car crashes. The spleen can be damaged or even ruptured. The liver may be torn or injured. Kidneys may be crushed. These injuries require prompt treatment because the resulting complications from organ damage could be fatal.
-
Punctured lung. A punctured lung can lead to problems breathing.
If a person’s internal injuries resulted from a car accident that was caused by another driver, the other driver (or the driver’s insurance company) can be held accountable for the medical expenses involved in treating the internal injuries.
