What is Post Concussion Syndrome?
Post Concussion Syndrome commonly referred to as PCS is the symptoms associated with a concussion. These could be symptoms that you might experience days or even weeks after an accident with a brain or head injury. In most cases, with rest, these symptoms will go away in a short time.
But that’s not the case for everyone. Some people may experience concussion symptoms for years after a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). In these cases, the injury is referred to as Post Concussion syndrome that may last a lifetime.
What Are The Most Common PCS Symptoms?
Studies have shown that PCS is most likely to appear in women. With that being said it happens with men as well. PCS is a complication condition that has a variety of different symptoms. Due to this many doctors have trouble providing an accurate diagnosis for post-concussion syndrome.
With PCS the symptoms can be physical and psychological. According to the Mayo Clinic, the most common symptoms are:
- Severe Anxiety
- Irritability
- Headaches
- Dizziness
- Fatigue
Typically those suffering from PCS will experience multiple of these symptoms.
Common Causes of Post Concussion Syndrome
PCS is most typically found in accidents where there was physical trauma to the brain such as:
- Car Accidents
- Bike Crashes
- Slip and Falls
- Motorcycle Accidents
- Falling Down Stairs
How Can a Lawyer Help Victims That Are Suffering From PCS?
In many cases, people who are injured with PCS do not fully understand their rights and potential right to compensation after an accident. This is especially true when there is a clear liability and the accident was no fault of your own.
An experienced attorney will help you make sure insurance companies do not deny or reduce your benefits. Typically insurance companies will try to pay the least amount possible to settle a claim which is not fair when you may have life-long debilitating injuries.
At GJEL Accident Attorneys we will collect the evidence of your case, investigate it, and if necessary file a lawsuit to fight for you on your behalf. We have been helping PCS victims since 1972 get the justice and compensation they deserve.
