Minor car accidents can cause various soft tissue injuries that can take a long time and money to recover from. If you have suffered soft tissue injuries in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries.
Unfortunately, soft tissue injuries are not easily seen on an X-ray, so to get a successful claim, you would need to keep good documentation of the injuries from your doctor. Documenting and recording evidence and medical records will help solidify your claim.
Types of Soft Tissue InjuriesSoft tissue injuries usually occur when an accident damages the tissues surrounding muscles, ligaments, or tendons. These injuries typically leave the victims with pain, swelling, and bruising. Some soft tissue injuries include:
- Bursitis
- Contusions or bruising
- Sprains
- Strains
- Tendinitis
- Torn ligaments
Soft tissue injuries can be permanent. Internal bleeding can pool on soft tissues, which can cause permanent damage.
