Burn Injuries In America

Millions of Americans receive medical care for burn injuries annually, according to the American Burn Association. Of course, most of the burns that are reported in these estimates are due to house fires, industrial accidents, and other types of fire-related injuries. It’s important to keep in mind that not all major burns are caused by fire. There are a number of burn types.

Types of Burns

There are several types of burns that people can suffer, depending on the nature of the incident that caused them. Here are just a few examples of common burns:

• House fires
• Industrial accidents and explosions
• Chemical burns and exposures
• Road rash injuries (typically motorcycle crashes)
• Radiation exposure burns

Impacts of Burn Injuries

Regardless of how the burn happened, there are many ways that burns can have a lasting impact on your health. These are some of the common long-term consequences of burns:

• Unsightly and disfiguring scars that may be permanent
• Unbearable pain and suffering
• Repeated surgical debridement of the wound
• Plastic surgery
• Neuropathic injuries (numbness, tingling, loss of sensation, etc.)
• Wound-related / Burn-related infections
• Hyper-sensitivity
• Injuries to underlying tissue and bones

Seeking Fair Compensation After a Burn

Burns are often caused by someone’s careless or negligent behavior. For instance, perhaps a business owner left highly flammable chemicals in a metal can in the hot Texas sun. This can create a combustible reaction that leads to an explosion. It’s important to know that you can seek compensation from the responsible parties to help you recover.

The first thing you need to do if you’ve suffered a burn is to make sure you seek appropriate emergency medical care right away. It’s imperative that your injuries be diagnosed, documented, and treated as soon as possible, in order to give you the best chance of a full recovery.
