Expressive Aphasia

Blunt force trauma to the head can have severe repercussions for an individual’s health, as this may result in brain injury. Some may escape with a concussion or bruising. Regrettably, many are not so fortunate. One of the dangers of a head injury is a condition called expressive aphasia. Damage to certain parts of the brain can interfere with an individual’s ability to produce fluent or functional speech.

Whether you or your loved one suffered from a head injury caused by a slip and fall or were injured in a serious car accident, you need to speak to an attorney about your legal rights. As a victim of negligence, you may be entitled to seek financial compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. Contact the Des Moines brain injury attorneys of LaMarca Law Group, P.C., at (515) 705-0233 today to discuss your case with a skilled and experienced lawyer.

Symptoms of Expressive Aphasia

Brain injuries can render sufferers unable to work, creating significant financial hardship in addition to their other concerns. They can destroy their power to communicate or even walk. Expressive aphasia presents itself in many head injury cases. The following are symptoms of expressive aphasia:

  • Improper use of grammar
  • Reduction in vocabulary
  • Difficult comprehending sentences
  • Disjointed speech

While this condition may resolve over time and with treatment, the path to recovery is difficult to predict. Victims of negligence may be left with medical bills that accumulate quickly, and a loss of wages might affect an entire family. The difficulties with communication can put a strain on an individual’s interpersonal relationships and might take a toll on his or her self-esteem.
