Common Injuries From Explosions
Whether the explosion is caused by natural gas or malfunctioning machinery, the injuries are typically severe and may even be life-threatening. Fatalities can also occur in an explosion. Some common types of injuries from explosions are:
- Pulmonary (lung) damage
- Eardrum ruptures
- Penetrating trauma from flying debris
- Blunt trauma
- Traumatic amputations
- Fractures
- Crushing injuries
- Burns
- Toxic exposure
- Skin destruction
Victims of explosions often sustain damage to their lungs, leaving them unable to breathe well. Internal damage can affect all the major organ systems, causing acute pain and loss of function. Amputations, ruptured eardrums or other ear injuries, concussions, eye injuries, and crushing wounds are also seen following explosions. If you’re injured in an explosion, contact Morgan & Morgan; we may be able to help with your personal injury case.
Types of Explosions
Explosions are typically divided into three categories: mechanical, chemical, and nuclear. Understanding the type of explosion can go a long way toward ensuring you receive full and fair compensation for your damages.
- Chemical explosions are separated into two categories: high-order and low-order explosions. An example of a low-order explosion is gunpowder, while dynamite is considered a high-order explosion.
- Mechanical explosions occur when pressurized gas expands beyond its container. The canister can explode, creating a shockwave. If the container is flammable, fire is also a possibility.
- Nuclear explosions are caused by a fission or fusion reaction. This is the most serious type of explosion, and it’s also rare.
If you’re injured in a chemical or mechanical explosion, the law offices of Morgan & Morgan may be able to help.
