Injuries caused in accidents could be of different types. Wounds, cuts, bruises, sprains, strains, minor burns and lacerations are usually considered minor and generally don’t cause any long-term effects if treated promptly and correctly. Broken/fractured bones, soft tissue injuries, etc can also be treated and the person may recover after a longer period. The most serious types of injuries are brain/spine trauma, internal organ damage, amputation, loss of function, disability or disfigurement, etc. Another important component of physical injury is the accompanying psychological and emotional trauma that most accident victims experience. Serious injuries also require long-term medical treatment and rehabilitation. Catastrophic injuries cause a complete alteration to the life of the victim.
