Even without a noticable head injury there can be serious brain damage to the person involved in the accident. Brain injuries, “closed head” impacts, often go undiagnosed in the emergency room. One may not even realize at first that they have been injured because a closed head traumatic brain injury often does not have obvious signs.
Brain injuries can cause inability to concentrate and memory problems as well as depression, irritability, hearing or eyesight problems. They can have devastating lifelong effects on the physical and mental functioning.
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord that results in a loss of function such as mobility or feeling.
