Many people incorrectly believe that mild head injuries are not of concern in relation to brain injury. In fact, even a concussion that does not result in lack of consciousness can cause damage to the brain which is not immediately apparent. Symptoms include dizziness, confusion, cognitive difficulty and personality changes. If you have experienced these following an accident, it is very important that you seek medical attention. It's also vital that you contact an attorney so they can document your case and pursue the compensation you will need.
