Head Injury Symptoms

By Michael LoGiudice
Founding Attorney

A commonly sustained injury in slip and falls, workplace accidents, and automobile accidents, head injuries are serious and often go undetected at first. The subtlety of the effects of sustaining a head injury leads many to go undiagnosed and undetected. If you were involved in an accident, seek immediate medical attention and be clear with your doctor about any symptoms you may be experiencing. Ere on the side of caution and tell you treating medical provider everything you are feeling, regardless of whether you think it is a big deal or not. While head injuries run a wide range as far as severity is concerned, you may have sustained anything from a concussion to a traumatic brain injury, there is always a real danger to your health in both the short and long term sense if the injury goes untreated.

If you have sustained a head injury in an accident caused by the negligence of another, talk to Attorney Michael LoGiudice about your legal options for recovering compensation.

What Are the Symptoms of a Head Injury?

As stated above, the fact that many head injury symptoms are subtle combined with the fact that many people might not know a certain symptom is associated with a head injury leaves many head injuries to go undiagnosed. Head injury symptoms include:

    Headaches
    Nausea
    Dizziness
    Memory loss
    Loss of concentration
    Changes in personality
    Light sensitivity
    Blurred vision
    Problems sleeping

Be clear with your doctor if you experience any of the above following an accident. Monitor your symptoms for several days after the accident as well and follow up with medical professionals accordingly.

Some head injuries, but not all, may result in a loss on consciousness. In more severe cases, a head injury may cause a person to enter into a coma. If there is swollen tissue, treating physicians may feel that a medically induced coma is necessary in order to give the tissue the time it needs to heal.

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most severe head injuries you can sustain. A TBI can be mild and you may experience things like headaches, neck pain, or your ability to concentrate may have been effected. If your TBI is more severe, a moderate TBI may lead you to go into convulsions and you may experience nausea or vomiting. Catastrophic TBIs often leave a person in a coma or even in a persistent vegetative state.
