Consequences of Severe Injuries
Severe injuries can lead to secondary conditions and chronic pain in addition to physical and/or mental impairment. It is often secondary conditions, such as infections or pneumonia, which lead to an early death in people who survive catastrophic injury. Victims and their loved ones commonly underestimate the lifetime cost of medical care and other types of care which will be necessary. In many cases a family member is forced to quit their job in order to provide care for a disabled loved one, adding the financial burden of lost income to the constantly growing expenses.
