Car accidents can result in various injuries, each with its own set of challenges. Here are some common injuries individuals may experience:

• Whiplash: This is one of the most common injuries and occurs when the head is suddenly jerked forward and then snapped back, straining the neck muscles and ligaments.
• Cuts and lacerations: Broken glass, flying debris, or contact with sharp objects inside the vehicle can cause cuts and lacerations.
• Head injuries: These can range from mild concussions to traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) depending on the severity of impact and whether the head strikes an object within the vehicle.
• Chest injuries: Impact with the steering wheel, dashboard, or seat belt can cause contusions, broken ribs, or internal injuries to the chest area.
• Broken bones: Fractures commonly occur in the arms, legs, ribs, and collarbones due to the force of impact.
• Internal injuries: These include injuries to organs such as the liver, spleen, kidneys, or lungs, which can result from blunt force trauma during the accident.
• Spinal injuries: Severe accidents can cause spinal cord injuries ranging from herniated discs to paralysis, depending on the location and extent of the injury.
• Soft tissue injuries: These include sprains, strains, and tears to muscles, tendons, and ligaments, often affecting the back, shoulders, and knees.
• Psychological trauma: Car accidents can also cause emotional distress such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in addition to physical injuries.
• Burns: In accidents involving fire or explosions, occupants can suffer burns from contact with hot surfaces, flames, or chemicals.
