Car Accidents in Alabama
Here are some important things to understand about the types of injuries people often experience in traffic collisions:
- Whiplash and Soft Tissue Injuries: Common in rear-end collisions, whiplash and soft tissue injuries can cause neck pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion. Even low-speed crashes can result in lasting discomfort if left untreated.
- Concussions and Head Trauma: When the head strikes a steering wheel, dashboard, or window, concussions and more serious brain injuries can occur. Symptoms may include confusion, dizziness, nausea, or memory loss, and some effects may take hours or days to appear.
- Fractures and Broken Bones: Arms, wrists, legs, and ribs are frequently fractured during a crash, especially if airbags deploy or the vehicle structure collapses. These injuries often require surgery and months of physical therapy.
- Emotional Trauma and Anxiety: Not all injuries are visible. Many accident victims suffer from psychological effects such as anxiety, PTSD, or depression. Mental health treatment is just as vital as physical recovery after a traumatic incident.
