Understanding some of the common injuries victims face after car accidents may help people grasp the seriousness of such events:

• Whiplash and Neck Injuries: This is one of the most frequent injuries after rear-end collisions. Whiplash can cause prolonged pain and stiffness and may require extensive therapy.
• Head Trauma: Even with airbags, head injuries are common. These range from concussions to more severe traumatic brain injuries that impact cognition and memory.
• Back Injuries: Herniated discs and spinal cord damage can result from the force of an impact. Some back injuries may not show symptoms right away, making a timely diagnosis critical.
• Broken Bones: Limbs, ribs, and pelvis are particularly vulnerable. Broken bones can require surgery, casting, and long recovery periods.
• Internal Injuries: Internal bleeding and organ damage are less visible but extremely dangerous. These injuries require immediate medical intervention.
• Psychological Trauma: Anxiety, PTSD, and emotional distress are often overlooked but very real outcomes for many crash victims. Therapy and counseling are often necessary to heal fully.
