Head injuries can happen any number of ways and can result in a number of different complications. Here are some early warning signs that may tell you if you have suffered from a head injury include:
- Feeling dazed or having loss of consciousness, following with vomiting and nausea
- Blurred vision
- Headaches
Some more long term symptoms could include the following:
- Irritability
- Difficulty concentrating
- Insomnia
- Difficulty tolerating bright lights
Often, these symptoms are overlooked and frequently not recognized for head injury.
Minimize your chance of having a head injury by wearing helmets when engaged in activities where you could hit your head, such as skating, bike riding, etc. Wear your seat belt in your vehicle to prevent your head from hitting the interior of the car during an accident. Inspect your home for hazardous fall areas and do your best to make your home hazard free.

This is all very good information. Head injuries have to be the most undiagnosed and overlooked injuries in this area. The doctors and lawyers don't know the people beforehand so it isn't clear. Family need to understand and experience lawyers that ask the right questions truly do make a difference.
