A severe concussion can lead to memory loss, equilibrium problems, even cognitive impairment. Back injuries can lead to muscle and nerve damage, resulting in the loss of dexterity, numbness in the extremities and chronic pain. In assessing costs associated with your injuries, it's important to consider future medical costs as well.
