Potential Injuries

An amputation is the surgical or accidental removal of an extremity. In some cases, a limb or digit can be injured so badly that doctors must amputate it to protect the overall wellbeing of the patient. Tragically, these severe injuries can occur from construction site accidents that could have been avoided.

In most cases, there are two types of construction-related injuries that may lead to amputations. One type of injury is one that damages a body part beyond repair. This may result from the body part being crushed, nerves being severed, or another injury that inhibits an individual’s use of the extremity.

The other type of construction-related injury that may lead to amputation occurs when the accident actually severs the extremity. In some cases, doctors may be able to reattach the severed body part if it has not received much damage. Unfortunately, doctors often cannot reattach severed body parts.
