When it comes to severe TBI, there are many effects that can be either short-term or long-term. In fact, the CDC reports that 43 percent of individuals hospitalized after a TBI have a related disability one year after the injury. A Los Angeles car accident victim with a TBI may face problems with:
- Attention, memory, and other cognitive functions
- Impaired coordination, lack of balance, weakness in extremities, and other motor functions
- Hearing, vision, perception, touch, and other sensations
- Changes in emotions, including depression, anxiety, and impulse control. Some TBI victims also endure complete changes in their personalities.
Victims of TBI can have a long road ahead of them, and some may never fully recover.
