Common Car Accident Injuries | Nashville TN

Car accidents can cause a multitude of visible and invisible personal injuries. Some of the most common car accident injuries include cuts, scrapes, bruises, strains, sprains and broken bones. While external injuries are easy to diagnose and treat, internal injuries are often harder to diagnose and can cause significant pain and disability.

Back And Neck Injuries

When the body is severely jostled, the spine and neck can become misaligned and sprains and strains of the muscles and tendons can cause pain, inflammation and loss of range of motion. Car accidents can also cause bulging and herniated discs, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and nerve roots.

Chest And Abdominal Injuries

Chest and abdominal injuries occur when the individual impacts the seat belt or steering column. This can cause fractures and bruising, and these injuries are more common if the car’s airbags do not deploy. In car accidents where the individual was hit from the side, kidney, liver and spleen injuries can occur.

Head Injuries

When the head is jarred or impacts an object, it can cause concussions and brain injuries. Concussions are a mild form of brain injury. They usually result in headaches, dizziness and soreness at the impact site. More severe head injuries can result in loss of limb and cognitive function as well as loss of speech.

Knee, Ankle And Leg Injuries

As the body is forced forward, kneecaps, legs and ankles can impact the dash and various other parts of the front of the car. This can result in broken bones and crush injuries if the impact is severe, or it can result in sprains and strains of the muscles and ligaments in the joints and legs.

Whiplash

Whiplash is suffered by nearly everyone that gets into a car accident. It causes neck stiffness, headaches, misalignments in the cervical vertebrae, dizziness and upper back pain. It is a debilitating condition that does not heal itself, and it can get worse over time instead of better.
