Seeking Maximum Compensation for Closed Head Injuries
A closed head injury is any head injury that does not penetrate the skull. Closed head injuries are typically caused by blows to the head. They frequently occur in traffic accidents, falls and assaults. Closed head injuries are also common in children who have suffered serious bicycle accidents.
There are many risks associated with closed head injury. Strong blows to the head can cause complications such as brain swelling and intracranial pressure, which in turn, can permanently destroy delicate brain tissue and nerve cells leading to permanent brain damage.
Types of Closed Head Injury
The extent of a patient's brain damage depends on the severity of the injury. Closed head injuries range from mild skull injuries to traumatic brain injuries, which can lead to severe brain damage or even death. There are several different types of closed head injury. They include concussion, brain contusion, diffuse axonal injury and hematoma.
