Burn Injuries from Electrocution, Fire, Explosions and Other Accidents
Injuries sustained from burns are traumatic injuries that affect more than the surface of the burn victim’s skin. Since the skin serves to protect underlying organs and helps to regulate body processes, damage to the skin in the form of a severe burn can affect the muscles, nerves, blood vessels, bone, body temperature and the retention of bodily fluids. In addition, burn injuries are among the most painful injuries a person can experience.
As a result of these far-reaching consequences, burn victims often require significant skin-grafts, around-the-clock care, long-term rehabilitation therapy and psychiatric care before they are able to return to normal functioning. Even still, some burn victims suffer for the rest of their lives with scars and other complications resulting from their injuries.
Causes of Burn Injuries
Many burns are sustained during on-the-job accidents at construction sites, factories and refineries. Common causes of burn injuries include:
- Gasoline Spills
- Gas Explosions
- Electrocution
- Chemical Exposure
- Propane Fires and Explosions
If you have sustained significant burns and believe they were caused by someone else’s negligence, our personal injury attorney will conduct a thorough investigation of the fire or explosion to determine whether a third party is responsible for your injuries.
