Kentucky Car Accident Injuries
Those who are involved in automobile accidents often sustain serious injuries, such as:
- Contusions
- Fractures
- Head injuries, including traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Herniated discs
- Spinal cord injuries
- Internal bleeding
- Soft tissue injuries, such as whiplash
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
The type of injuries suffered will depend upon a variety of factors, including speed, angle of the crash, and size of the vehicles involved. Different types of accidents tend to cause different kinds of injuries. Some common types of crashes and the injuries that can result include:
- Head-on collisions – injuries to the head, brain, back, and spinal cord.
- Rear-end collisions – whiplash, as well as other neck and back injuries.
- Side-impact crashes – head, brain, neck, back, chest, abdominal, pelvic, and soft tissue injuries.
- Rollover accidents – broken bones, spinal injuries, brain, and soft tissue injuries.
- Accidents involving commercial trucks – catastrophic injuries, burns, and exposure to hazardous materials.
If your injury has been described as a MIST (minor impact soft tissue), this refers to a claim that many auto insurers make that the occupants of vehicles sustaining minimal property damage cannot sustain serious or permanent injuries. This is far from the truth, and an attorney experienced with MIST injuries will understand the hidden damages, long term treatment, and therapy associated with these types of injuries that must be accounted for in any settlement or award.
