Common Signs Of A Brain Injury

One of the most debilitating accident injuries a victim can suffer is a brain injury. Unfortunately, many victims do not realize they have suffered an injury right away. It can be hours or even days after the incident before symptoms begin appearing and even then the victim may not be aware of what is happening to them. Unfortunately, this can leave the victim at a high risk of permanent damage or even death. This is why a brain injury lawyer in Houston, TX recommends that even victims of minor accidents should be checked by a medical professional right away.

The following are some of the more common signs of a brain injury and an indicator that the victim should seek medical attention immediately.

Changes in Their Mood

If an accident victim exhibits changes in their normal mood, such as showing signs of anxiety, aggressiveness, or depression, there may be a brain injury. If the victim has a history of any mood disorder, such as depression, an exasperation of those moods could be a warning something is wrong.

Changes in Sleep Habits

Any change in sleep patterns or habits should initiate a call to the victim’s doctor. This includes sleeping too much or not being able to fall asleep or stay asleep.

Confusion or Disorientation

Being involved in an accident can leave anyone shaken up, however, if the victim shows symptoms of being confused, disorientated, or dazed hours after the accident occurred, this could be a sign that they have sustained a brain injury.

Loss of Consciousness

A Houston, TX brain injury lawyer knows that any time an accident victim loses consciousness, emergency medical attention should be sought immediately, even if just for a few seconds. A loss of consciousness is a significant sign that there has been some kind of injury to the victim’s brain.

Sensitivity to Stimuli

If the victim has an unusual sensitivity to sound, light, or other stimuli, they should consult with their doctor to make sure they have not suffered a brain injury since this is also an indicator.

Other Symptoms

There are a myriad of other symptoms that accident victims should also watch out for, including:

  • Vision issues
  • Headaches
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Loss of balance
  • Slurred speech
  • Weakness in arms, legs, or face
  • Seizures

Contact Our Office Today

Brain injuries are one of the most serious and financially burdensome injuries and accident victims can suffer. There is often long-term or permanent damage done that requires all kinds of changes in the victim’s lifestyle. The financial costs and the inability to work for a victim who has suffered a serious brain injury can be overwhelming to both the victim and their family.

If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury, contact a Houston, TX brain injury lawyer from John K. Zaid & Associates to find out what kind of legal recourse you may have.
