In healthy Massachusetts adults, the hip is a very strong and stable bone. It takes a great amount of force to cause a hip injury, which usually results from Massachusetts motor vehicle accidents and Massachusetts slip and fall accidents. Massachusetts hip injuries may occur due to reckless Massachusetts drivers or Massachusetts grocery stores that failed to clean up a puddle on the floor.
Elderly Massachusetts residents, whose delicate bones make them more vulnerable to hip injuries, may sustain significant hip trauma from falls in a Massachusetts nursing home due to negligent care by the staff. Furthermore, products, such as special beds, baths and other household items, intended to meet the needs of Massachusetts elderly persons, must meet Massachusetts and federal safety standards. Defective Massachusetts products that are negligently designed or malfunction can cause injuries that they should have prevented.
Massachusetts hip injuries may include a broken hip, pelvic fracture or acetabular fracture. Hospitalization and surgery, including a hip replacement, will likely lead to a lengthy absence from work. This can result in expensive medical bills and no way to pay for them. Surgeries to correct hip immobility carry the risk of embolism after surgery, and the injured Massachusetts resident may continue to feel pain or experience bone damage, infection or arthritis.
Serious Massachusetts hip injuries, involving complications with surgery or severe breaks, may require long-term care, which will change a person’s life forever. In older individuals, recovery from a hip injury takes even longer, and can even lead to premature death. Research has found that in older people, hip fractures are correlated with death within a year of the injury.
Treatment for Massachusetts hip injuries can take a long time. It may take three months to recover from a hip replacement. In addition to the pain you feel during this time, you will also need to pay for medical equipment and nursing. To regain mobility and manage your pain, you may need rehabilitation, physical therapy and medication. You may depend on someone else to help with your care and maintaining your home. If your Massachusetts hip injury causes permanent damage or complications, you may be unable to return to work. All of these costs add up and create a major financial burden on you and your family. However, you should not need to pay for someone else’s negligence.
