The Effects of a Brain Injury

For some individuals, a blow to the head can result in relatively mild effects that heal over time. Others can experience a lifetime of debilitating trauma. The results largely depend on the severity of the strike and the area of the brain damaged.  Once the severity of the damage is determined, a Maryland brain injury attorney can help you find out the amount of compensation available to you.

Even mild brain trauma can cause significant effects

The most common form of traumatic brain injury (TBI) can sometimes be relatively mild. But even individuals with mild TBI can experience long-term recovery times—potentially over a year.

According to the Brain Injury Association of America, some of the common effects of mild TBI include headaches, sleep disturbances, dizziness, nausea, and fatigue. But it is common to experience effects on vision, memory, and speed of thinking, and even seizures and emotional issues may arise from TBI.
