Arm & Elbow Injuries

Slightly bumping or injuring our arms and elbows is a common occurrence for most of us. The injuries can be more annoying than anything and heal relatively quickly. However, sometimes, they can be debilitating, making working, exercising, or accomplishing everyday tasks difficult.

Arm and elbow injuries from an accident due to someone else’s negligence can cause short- or long-term issues. Regardless of how long they last, the injuries result in lost wages due to reduced or missed time at work, medical expenses, and more.

If this has happened to you, you need the help of an experienced personal injury attorney who can get results for you.

Fighting For The Best Results

The goal of your attorney is to obtain the best possible results for you by investigating what occurred and determining who was at fault so all responsible parties can be held accountable.

Common arm injuries include:

• Ulna radial fracture – These tend to result from slip and fall accidents and car accidents. Treatment involves surgery to stabilize the arm.
• Broken bones – There are two prominent bones in the arm; either one can be broken, resulting in the arm having to be manually set or surgery to stabilize the arm.

Common elbow injuries include:

• Broken elbow – The elbow is a very complex joint formed by three bones. If broken, it can interfere with the arm’s functionality.
• Ulnar nerve injury – Nerve injuries can be excruciating. This particular injury causes tingling or burning in the 4th and 5th digits, pain in the fingers and hand, decreased sensation, and even loss of muscle strength in the hand.

Fighting For Your Right To Compensation

Your personal injury attorney will do everything possible to get you the compensation you deserve. They’ll negotiate settlements or take the case to court so that you get monetary damages for what you’ve endured.
