Paralysis from an Accident in Indianapolis (Part B)

Signs of Paralysis after an Accident in Indianapolis

After an accident in Indianapolis, it may not be immediately evident that an individual has suffered paralysis. It could be that until the victim is treated, it won't become clear how much damage has been done.

Here are some signs and symptoms that may indicate an individual has paralysis:

• numb feeling;
• tingling sensation;
• pain;
• imbalance;
• bladder and/or bowel dysfunction;
• trouble breathing;
• difficulty with movement; and
• speech or vision difficulties.

Paralysis can be caused by a spinal cord injury, brain damage or injury to the peripheral/central nervous system. When it is the result of negligence, then the responsible party may be held liable for the damages you have suffered.

Compensation after an Accident in Indianapolis

You could be entitled to compensation that addresses the damages you have suffered as a result of your accident in Indianapolis. Paralysis may lead to costly medical bills, which can escalate as you seek further treatment.

You may face several months or even a lifetime of special care and treatment. Assistive devices such as wheelchairs are extremely expensive. Ongoing physical therapy can also add to your financial burden.

Additionally, you may be out of work for several months or even unable to return to your job. Damages for your lost wages, earning potential and permanent disability may be available.

You could be entitled to additional compensation, which an Indianapolis accident attorney can help determine. This may include mental anguish, pain and suffering, and reduced quality of life.

It may seem impossible to ever get your life back on track, but you can be significantly helped when you pursue a claim against the negligent party. An Indianapolis accident attorney will fight hard for your rights so that you can take the necessary steps to begin the process of learning how to live a fulfilling and productive life.
