Pages On: Arm Injury

An arm injury is usually not severe, unless you have to manage life without your arms. Arm breakages and fractures are very common forms of personal injury claims, where most make a full recovery. However, in the event of arm amputations, people can have their access to work and leisure completely removed, especially where suitable prosthetics are not available. If you’ve suffered an arm injury and aren’t at fault, you will probably be entitled to personal injury compensation.
