Nerve Damage Lawye

Truck accident victims usually suffer from several different types of injuries. Nerve damage is an injury which can occur during a truck accident. In addition to tingling and lack of sensation, nerve damage can lead to weakness, on account of muscles not contracting.

One common indicator of nerve damage is a numbness or tingling feeling that will not go away. Other symptoms include:

Tingling ("pins and needles")
Clumsiness, or even Paralysis (because muscles are not signaled to work correctly)
Reduced Sensitivity to Pressure
[Note: The area might be more sensitive to light touch than to firmer pressure.]
In some cases a person may actually experience no pain at all. The area in question may actually feel completely numb.

There are numerous tests that can be performed to check for nerve damage but the most common include an examination of the area of the body in question and X-rays, in case of stress fractures or arthritis, are also used.

Although nerve damage is often times permanent, there are certain precautions a person can take to help the damaged nerves heal. Wearing splints or orthotics/switching shoes if the area in question involves the foot. Taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory injections and having corticosteroid injections can also help the nerves heal. The most recommended treatment for nerve damage is rest.

Surgery can sometimes be used to correct nerve damage complications. This option is usually a last resort, considering the risks involved, and left for the patient to decide upon.

If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident and is suffering from nerve damage you may be entitled to monetary compensation.
