What Types of Accidents Can Cause Head & Neck Trauma?
A blow to the head may seem like the most obvious cause of head and neck injury. But, the context of that blow to the head can be a wide variety of actions, including:
- Motor vehicle collisions – Whiplash injuries are common in rear-end accidents. While airbags offer added protection in a collision, it is still possible to collide with the dash or window, resulting in serious head trauma, in a car accident.
- Motorcycle accidents – Head injuries are the leading cause of death in motorcycle accidents.
- Swimming pool accidents – Diving into water that is too shallow can result in head, neck, and spinal cord injury.
- Playing sports – Kids, teens, and adults active in contact sports may be more likely to experience a head injury.
- Workplace accidents – Large industrial machinery, construction sites, and even on-the-job truck accidents make the workplace a danger zone for potential head injury.
- Medical malpractice – Birth injuries are commonly caused by trauma to the brain, head, and neck. Failing to secure a patient on a backboard during transport or even movement from one bed to another can further damage and injured head, neck or spinal cord.
- Falls – Particularly with older adults or those with mobility limitations, a slip and fall can cause serious head trauma.
When a head injury results in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), our Florida catastrophic injury lawyers understand that this type of injury often results in permanent injuries that not only affect people’s health, but also their ability to function and perform daily activities.
