About Head Injuries and Brain Injuries in Dallas, Texas

A person may sustain a head or brain injury due to physical trauma, as in the case of an assault or an auto accident, or may have an acquired brain injury that may occur from a lack of oxygen to the brain. The first form of injury, a traumatic brain injury, may involve a concussion, contusion, whiplash, penetration, or any other type of physical trauma to the head or brain itself. An acquired brain injury may develop due to injury to a child during labor or delivery, caused by a delayed c-section or incident that involves the infant’s brain not getting enough oxygen for a period of time. Cerebral palsy is a common brain injury that may be sustained due to medical malpractice, and these types of injuries may result in developmental delays, mental retardation and a number of other serious problems.
