Common Miami Explosion Injuries
The explosions that occur in factories and at construction sites can severely injure anyone within the vicinity of that blast. It can even cause long-term injuries in those who are outside of the blast radius at the time of the explosion.
It is important to understand the extent of the injuries suffered by an explosion victim as well as the treatments needed to heal in the aftermath.
Here are some common injuries caused by explosions:
Lung Injury
Blast lung: Also known as pulmonary barotrauma, blast lung is caused by sudden air pressure changes associated with explosions. Symptoms include hypotension, dyspnea (difficulty breathing), hemoptysis (airway bleeding), bradycardia (a decrease in heart rate), and confluent hemorrhages (lung bleeding).
Ear Injury
Depending on how close the victim was to the blast, they may suffer a range of ear injuries, including a ruptured eardrum, long-term hearing loss, tinnitus, or vertigo.
Abdominal Injury
Explosions can cause a range of abdominal injuries, including:
- bowel perforation
- internal bleeding
- hematomas
- organ damage
- testicular ruptures
Brain Injuries
An explosion can cause brain injuries even to those outside of a blast radius. From concussions to traumatic brain injuries, explosions can cause serious harm and cause victims to suffer from fatigue, consistent headaches, insomnia, loss of concentration, and even paralysis.
