Common Explosion Injuries
When an explosion occurs, whether in a factory, at a construction site, or anywhere else, it can severely injure anyone near the blast. It can even result in long-term injuries for those outside of the blast radius.
Here are some common injuries associated with explosion accidents:
Lung Injuries
One of the most common explosion injuries is what is known as blast lung or pulmonary barotrauma. It 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)
- confluent hemorrhages (lung bleeding)
Ear Injuries
Depending on the victim's proximity to the blast radius, they can suffer a wide range of ear problems like ruptured eardrums, long-term hearing loss, vertigo, and tinnitus.
Abdominal Injuries
Explosions can cause a variety of abdominal injuries, including:
- internal bleeding
- bowel perforation
- hematomas
- testicular ruptures
- organ damage
Brain Injuries
Brain injuries are common among explosion accident victims, and even those outside of the blast radius can suffer brain injury because of the explosion. From concussions to traumatic brain injuries, blast victims have been known to suffer from fatigue, headaches, insomnia, concentration loss, and even paralysis.
