New Mexico Car Accidents
Accidents in New Mexico result in tens of thousands of injuries every year. These accidents often leave victims to endure overwhelming pain and suffering. Many of these car crashes require victims to undergo hospitalization for several days, while many of the victims require weeks or even months off work to recover.
Some of the most common injuries reported following car crashes in New Mexico include:
- Spinal cord injuries: These injuries can result in paralysis and have an overwhelming impact on the lives of victims.
- Fractured bones: These injuries can require surgical repair. In most cases, victims have to wear castes for several weeks or even months.
- Internal organ damage: An internal organ injury can be incredibly life-threatening. Unfortunately, we see many people suffer injuries to the lungs, spleens, and livers.
- Traumatic brain injuries: A severe injury to the brain can be incredibly debilitating. Many people who suffer this have to go through therapy and rehabilitation for several months or years following their accidents.
