  3. COMMON TYPES OF LEG INJURIES THAT MAY OCCUR IN YOUR ATLANTA MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT There’s no better feeling than hitting the open road on your motorcycle. Unfortunately, as a motorcycle rider, you face certain risks that other motorists don’t. After all, there’s no metal or plastic to protect you from a fall or accident. Because of this, it isn’t uncommon to suffer more serious injuries if an accident does occur. If you are injured in a motorcycle accident caused by someone else, you have rights. One right is to recover compensation from the at-fault party. If you need help with your accident claim, you can count on our legal team at Law Offices of Matthew C. Hines for help. It can also be beneficial to understand the types of injuries you may experience if you are involved in a motorcycle accident in Atlanta. One of the most common that we see is injuries to your legs.

  4. Why Are Leg Injuries So Common in Atlanta Motorcycle Accidents? Your legs are exposed on both sides of your bike when you ride. Most motorcycles aren’t stable on their own and will fall over during an accident. This can cause fractured feet and legs, ankle sprains, torn knee ligaments, and other types of injuries to your lower extremities. You may also experience severe lacerations on your leg or femur fractures, resulting in significant blood loss and serious infection, and may also require you to have the injured leg amputated.

  5. Different Types of Leg Injuries You May Sustain in an Atlanta Motorcycle Accident The damage that may occur to the lower part of your body in an Atlanta motorcycle accident includes: Injuries to Your Feet Just like your legs, your feet are vulnerable in a motorcycle accident. This type of collision may result in broken foot bones and toes. Some of the most common injuries include fractures to your calcaneus, tarsals, metatarsals, and foot. You may also undergo toe amputation, degloving (when a lot of tissue and skin is ripped off), or crushing. Injuries to Your Ankles Dislocations, fractures, and sprains to your ankle are also common in a motorcycle accident. Your fibula malleolar (the projection at the base of the fibula) and tibia (shinbone) may be injured. In fact, these two injuries account for around 90% of the ankle injuries that occur in a motorcycle accident.

  6. Injuries to Your Knees Tears in your meniscus, PCL, ACL, and MCL are all common knee injuries. You can also experience knee joint fractures and kneecap injuries. Other knee injuries include lacerations, sprains, and dislocations. Injuries to Your Legs Femur fractures are extremely common motorcycle injuries. This includes femur shaft fractures. You may also experience soft tissue injuries to your thighs’ nerves, veins, and arteries. While these are not as common, they can occur. Complete or even partial above-knee amputation of your leg can also be the result of a motorcycle accident. Injuries to Your Pelvis Pelvic fractures that occur with or without deformation occur in motorcycle accidents. Sometimes, you may experience the separation of your pubic symphysis or fractures to the sacrum. Injuries to Your Hips A motorcycle accident may result in dislocation or fractures of your hips. These injuries are often seen in motorcyclists who roll after they hit the road.

  7. We Can Help You Recover Full Compensation for Your Motorcycle Accident Claim Suppose you experienced any of the lower-extremity injuries mentioned above in your Atlanta motorcycle accident. In that case, it may cause you to be unable to work and support your family for several years. You may have to undergo several surgeries, spend extensive time recovering, and have long-term rehabilitation. For many, this means spending a lot of time away from work. Also, the medical treatment required for serious hip, pelvic, leg, knee, ankle, or feet injuries is likely to be expensive and extensive. If your accident was caused by someone else, you could seek fair and full compensation for all the damages and losses you experienced.
