Signs of Concussion After a Car Accident

Car accidents, as common as they may be, are incredibly dangerous depending on the circumstances. One of the most common injuries incurred in a car accident is a concussion, which is a mild brain injury. This type of injury generally occurs after a blow to the head, and it results in serious aftereffects such as possible internal bleeding, bruising, or tearing of the nerve fibers.

Concussions are organized by grade according to how serious they are, as Grade 1 and 2 concussion victims generally recover after a week or so while Grade 3 concussion victims may suffer from life-threatening consequences. Even if your concussion is mild, you may still have to miss work or obtain treatment from a medical professional.

The following are the most common signs of a concussion after a car accident, including but not limited to:

  • Loss of consciousness
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Confusion
  • Nausea or vomiting, dizziness, and sensitivity to light
  • Mood changes

After experiencing any of the above symptoms, as well as disturbed sleep patterns or headaches, it is absolutely vital you seek medical attention as quickly as possible. It is also important you keep all evidence or documentation of what has happened so your legal team can work to ensure your expenses are covered and your pain and suffering is compensated.
