Most Common Causes of Chest Injuries

Whilst chest injuries can occur from innumerable types of accidents, those that you’re not at fault for are limited in number. This is because you are owed a duty of care by your employer, other road users, and businesses whose premises you are on in Glasgow. When an accident happens, and you suffer a chest injury as a result, the party at fault has acted negligently. They will need to be held accountable.

Accidents at Work Causing Chest Injury

For instance, an accident at work, like being crushed by falling objects, struck by machinery, or falling from a height could all cause significant chest injury. In these cases, your employer would likely be liable for your personal injury, and compensation would be due to you.

You deserve to feel safe when visiting businesses in Glasgow. This is why companies have a duty of care to your health and safety when you visit their premises. Most of the time, injuries in public places tend to be caused by slip, trip and fall accidents, where such injuries aren’t commonly resulting in chest injury. However, collapsing displays and storage can crush patrons in shops and stores – causing significant injury.

Chest Injuries from Road Traffic Accidents in Glasgow

Chest Injuries aren’t usually an isolated area for damage to occur in a road traffic accident. A number of different parts of our body, such as our necks, are prone to injury in car accidents. Chest injuries are no different, especially where seatbelts are concerned. But in the event of motorcycle crashes, pedestrian knockdowns, or bicycle accidents, there is very little protecting the exposed areas of the body – the chest being one of them. This can lead to serious injury, and even death.

Types of Chest Injuries

There aren’t many different forms of chest injury, but they are almost all very serious. Bruising causes extreme discomfort, broken ribs can puncture organs, organs themselves can fail. In the worst of these cases, the injuries can prove fatal.

Chest injuries aren’t just caused by physical afflictions, industrial diseases can also injure the chest and the vital organs within it. The most common types of occupational illness affecting the chest area are Mesothelioma, COPD, work-caused Asthma, and lung disease. In these situations, your employer, current or past, may be liable for your illness, and compensation could be due to you.
