Concussions have gotten some attention over the past years mainly because of an outpouring of NFL players who have come forward with brain injuries. These injuries have been proven to be caused by sustaining significant blows to the head forcing the NFL to reexamine their medical protocols and overall practicing methods.
Many people experience concussions without even knowing. These cases can be in children who are involved in contact sports, those involved in a forceful blow due to a car accident, those who work on construction sites and are injured by heavy machinery, and many more. If you endure a head injury leading to a concussion, it’s important to know your rights.
