Broken bone injuries can cause an intense amount of physical and emotional pain, especially if there are complications involved with setting the bone. They can also be very expensive to treat. Different types of bone injuries that have been addressed in personal injury lawsuits include:
- Displaced, non-displaced, simple or compound fractures
- Pulverized bones or crushed joints
- Multiple fractures which require pins and screws
- Bone infection or abscess; the worst of these is osteomyelitis.
Many of these types of broken bones can result in physical impairment and lasting pain.
Scars can be caused by burns of all kinds as well as skin lacerations. Relatively small scars generally do not cause discomfort or complications. However, larger scars can create problems such as:
- Disfigurement
- Numbness, itching, or pain if the scar tissue places pressure on nerve endings
- Impaired mobility if scar tissue forms over joints
Severe or extensive scarring can be a difficult problem to live with. If you or a loved one has developed a serious scar due to another party’s recklessness, our St. Petersburg scar injury lawyers may be able to help.
