Local Law Firms Home > Medical Malpractice Overview > Brain Injuries > Frequent Headaches If you or someone you know received medical treatment that led to a brain injury or sustained a brain injury was misdiagnosed or not properly cared for by a doctor, you or the victim may experience symptoms that could have otherwise been avoided. One of these common symptoms is frequent headaches. Although this can be a common symptom following any brain injury, it is inexcusable if it is something that could have been prevented by a doctor’s proper care.
Constant headaches can be painful and aggravating. Even when they are not severe migraines, a headache that is persistent and won’t go away—even with constant medication, which is not healthy either—can be a nuisance. Frequent headaches can affect daily activities, and make simple tasks seem unbearable. Did you know? According to statistics, 43 out of every 10 children who sustained a mild brain injury complained of frequent headaches three months after the initial injury. It's uncertain why those with mild brain injury were more likely to experience headaches than those who sustained a more serious injury.
