Experiencing an assault or act of violence can result in severe physical and emotional trauma.

Common Types of Injuries from Assault or Violence
Assault and violence can lead to a wide range of injuries, including:
- Physical Trauma: Such as bruises, fractures, lacerations, and head injuries.
- Internal Injuries: Resulting from blunt force trauma or penetrating wounds.
- Nerve Damage: Causing chronic pain, numbness, or impaired function.
- Emotional and Psychological Trauma: Leading to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other mental health issues.
- Sexual Assault Injuries: Requiring specialized medical and emotional care.
These injuries can disrupt every aspect of a victim’s life, from basic self-care to work and relationships.
