The Support You Need. The Settlement You Deserve.

Abdominal Hematoma and California Personal Injury Claims

A serious car crash on a California freeway or a frightening accident at work can easily leave you bleeding internally. These are dangerous injuries that need immediate attention.

Any blunt force or penetrating force suffered in the mid-section can also release blood into your abdominal cavity. This could lead to an abdominal hematoma and leave you facing a life-threatening injury and an expensive recovery.

And if these accidents are caused by someone else’s negligence, another driver, an employer, or a property owner should be held fully liable for your hospital bills.

If you or a loved one are left with an abdominal hematoma after a car crash or any other personal injury accident, you may have real doubts about how you’ll pay for recovery.

Will the at-fault party’s insurance company provide support? They can, but you’ll usually have to force them to do the right thing and accept liability for their policyholder’s mistake.

Abdominal Hematoma Dangers in California Accidents

A hematoma is the release of blood that collects outside of blood vessels. A body suffering trauma in the impact force of a car crash or while working around a malfunctioning machine may suffer damaged blood vessels and tissue in the abdominal cavity that cause this pooling blood.

In an abdominal hematoma, blood can be left in the space between your organs and the inner lining of your abdominal wall. Blood may also collect in the muscle layers of the abdominal wall. These pockets of blood can damage surrounding organs and also become dangerous when blood loss doesn’t stop.

Sometimes the symptoms of abdominal bleeding are hard to spot and even emergency room doctors may send a patient home who is still bleeding around the stomach without realizing it.

Healthline lists these symptoms as common for someone suffering from an abdominal hematoma:

  • Abdominal pain and chest pain.
  • Shortness of breath.
  • Dizzy spells.
  • Bruising visible on the skin.
  • Nausea.
  • Blood in the urine.
  • Diarrhea.

When bleeding doesn’t stop, interventional radiology may be needed. This strategy uses small wires and tools to enter the abdominal cavity and shut down the flow of blood. In some cases, surgery is needed. Surgeons will go in and remove the excess blood and close up the spot that’s releasing blood.

There are many other severe complications associated with hematoma treatment. These intensive treatments can stress out loved ones and also leave them with the incredible costs of healthcare. Victims of careless acts that suffer abdominal bleeding should never be held accountable for the cost of recovery. A California traumatic injury lawyer works to make sure at-fault parties and their insurance companies are front-and-center when it comes time to pay medical bills.

What Kind of Things Can I Receive Compensation for After an Abdominal Hematoma?

The effects of an abdominal hematoma may last only over a night in the emergency room. The effects could also stick around for years and result in multiple surgeries. That’s why it’s so important to get the most out of any claim for damages involving internal bleeding.

That insurance support earned might have to cover your health issues over months or even over the rest of your life in the case of a permanent disability.

Your California personal injury lawyer will work to make sure insurance companies are aware of every damage you’ve absorbed since your injury and get estimates on hardships that may occur in the future. Any of your hardships that aren’t included when you file your claim won’t be eligible to earn you and your family compensation.

These are just a few of the things that can factor into the amount you’ll see on a settlement check:

  • Past and future medical bills.
  • Physical therapy bills. Abdominal hematoma victims must often learn to how to eat and breathe again and rebuild their core strength.
  • Estimates on the lifelong physical and emotional costs of permanent physical disability.
  • Support for the pain endured during recovery.
  • Support for the emotional trauma endured during a frightening accident and through a difficult hematoma recovery. The anguish of not being able to participate in family activities or enjoy former hobbies contributes to an overall loss of enjoyment of life.
  • Past and future lost wages while having to miss work hours.
  • Replacement of personal property damaged in an accident.
  • Wrongful death benefits. The support a family should receive after having a loved one die from excessive bleeding in the stomach. This can include money for burial and to pay leftover medical bills. A wrongful death claim also asks for help replacing the financial support the deceased can no longer provide the family in the coming years.
