The American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) just released the results from an analysis conducted on head injury statistics in 2009. Among the findings were that of over 450,000 head injuries related to sports. Two sports in particular showed alarming numbers; bicycling and swimming. The study found over 70,000 head injuries reported that were caused by bicycle accidents, and almost 12,000 head injuries related to swimming sports.
During the summer it get very hot in Southern California and naturally Los Angeles residents like to swim or ride their bikes. It is important for bicyclists to be cautious while out on the roads with other drivers. Some drivers might be reckless or negligent. Families or babysitters monitoring children in swimming pools must be aware of the risk of head or brain injuries associated with being under water for too long. In the event that you or a loved one suffers Los Angeles head injuries due to negligence of any kind you should seek the advice of an attorney.
