Burn Injury Treatment and Long-Term Needs
Treatment of third-degree burns is excruciating and endless, starting with painful clorox baths to cleanse wounds and prevent infection and frequent application of gels to aid healing and keep skin supple. Burn victims commonly need round-the-clock pain medication and sedation because of the physical and mental agony. There may be multiple rounds of skin graft surgeries and grueling physical therapy, and some victims will require surgical amputation.
Those who are burned on the face and head may suffer loss of vision, hearing or speech in addition to permanent disfigurement. Their fragile skin cannot endure heat or sunlight, and many stop going out in public anyway because of the reactions to their appearances.
Personal injury attorney Lawrence M. Tylka spends time and energy with his clients, their doctors and family members to understand the extent of disability, the level of pain and their ongoing needs. He carefully documents the lawsuit to cover:
- The staggering hospital bills
- Future skin grafts or reconstructive surgery
- 24-hour nursing care or assisted living help
- Pain medications and burn care products
- Wheelchairs, air purifiers and home modifications
- Psychiatric care and psychological counseling
- The terrible pain and suffering
- Lost earning capacity
- Permanent or partial disability
