Types of Internal Injuries
When you make a personal injury claim, you are entitled to have all of your medical bills and costs paid. You are also entitled to recover monetary compensation if you cannot work due to your injuries; if your earning power is reduced; or if you experience pain and suffering and emotional distress.
The severity of your injury will determine how much you are entitled to receive from a personal injury claim. Some of the common types of internal injuries that occur as a result of accidents and that lead to claims include:
- Abdominal aorta aneurysms due to the abdomen being compressed or crushed.
- Broken ribs, which are common in auto accidents.
- Internal bleeding due to pressure from a force or impact that damages the blood vessels.
- Bleeding in the brain, which can occur due to closed or open head wounds and which can cause permanent brain damage.
- Pneumothorax, which is a collapsed lung that occurs due to the lung being punctured.
- A ruptured spleen, which can affect your body’s ability to fight infection or destroy bacteria. A ruptured spleen can cause severe internal bleeding and fill the abdominal cavity with blood if surgical correction does not occur promptly.
- Liver damage, which commonly occurs in auto accidents. Pressure from a force or impact can tear open the organ and/or cause internal bleeding.
- Kidney damage, which occurs when your back or lower flanks experience impact in an accident.
These are just a few of the common types of internal injuries that you may endure as a result of an accident. Unfortunately, almost any organ in your body may be hurt by impact and can cause you to suffer serious and ongoing medical issues.
If you’ve been injured in a Georgia car accident you should speak with an experienced car accident attorney as soon as possible. Please contact us online or call our office directly at (800) 234-9556 to schedule your free consultation.

I used Van Sant Law for my auto accident claim and I'm so glad I did! Parker, my attorney, was especially great. He really eased my pain and got me the best settlement possible. I highly recommend Van Sant Law. They did right by me and I'm very happy with their level of service.

I had a head on collusion that left me with a totaled car & very bad injuries. From the first time I spoke to David Van Sant to the end I have been totally satisfied. I worked with Patricia she was very compassionate yet professional she was always ready to answer any concerns that I might have. I am grateful that my daughter found this law firm for me.

My attorney, David Van Sant and his law firm were outstanding in handling my personal injury case. I was out of work for a considerable amount of time due to an automobile accident and Mr. Van Sant and his entire team were always kind, professional, knowledgeable and especially available. This law firm did their absolute best to answer and return calls and at no time did I ever feel like just a number or stranger. My experience with Mr. Van Sant and his law firm (from beginning to end), were very positive as well as favorable.
