Types of Dog Bite Injuries
Physical injuries suffered from dog bites can include: abrasions, lacerations, punctures, tissue loss and avulsion, crush injuries, fractured bones, sprain and strain injuries, scars, and infections such as rabies. Depending on the circumstances of the dog bite, the injured person may have legal rights to be compensated for his or her injury, including money damages for pain and suffering, scarring, disability, medical bills, and lost wages. The dog owner is usually found to be strictly liable for the damages resulting from the dog bite.
Physical injuries can also result in psychological injuries to a victim. After a traumatic attack, a victim may not feel or behave normally for a significant amount of time. He or she may feel depressed, nervous or fearful, take dangerous risks or not get along with friends and family. There are many possible symptoms and classifications of this problem. “Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)” is one such classification.
One of the most common side effects that victims experience after a dog bite can be fear of dogs. These problems can occur immediately or sometime after the tragic event. Many such children will develop post-traumatic stress. PTSD may resolve without treatment, but some form of therapy by a mental health professional is often required in order for healing to occur.
