Misdiagnosing a Brain Injury
It is not always obvious that there has been a traumatic injury to the brain, especially when the injury appears to be minor. However, it is not necessary for a victim to lose consciousness for there to be a significant brain injury. Many people claim to feel perfectly normal after experiencing a bump or injury to the head, refusing medical treatment, which can have serious consequences. This does not relieve those responsible from acting in the best interests of the injured party to obtain medical attention.
Symptoms of brain injury can appear days or even weeks after the injury occurred, which can make connecting the incident to the injury difficult. Particularly with children, the normal falls and bumps that they experience can result in brain injuries which are unfortunately often misdiagnosed in emergency rooms.
