Surgery is an anxious and stressful experience at the best of times, and we understand how traumatic it can be when something goes wrong. We’ll make your nerve damage claim as easy as possible so you can focus on getting better.
If you've sustained nerve damage due to mistakes made during surgery or some other procedure, our medical negligence solicitors can help you claim compensation.
Nerves are delicate and easily damaged during surgery. Surgical teams and other medical staff have a duty to reduce the risk of nerve damage by checking the location of nearby nerves before operating.
Nerve damage is particularly common in certain operations such as back, hip, or knee surgery or hernia repairs. You may have sustained nerve damage if you had an operation and experienced:
- Paralysis and immobility
- Altered sensations
- Shooting pains
- Tinging feelings
- Feeling hot and cold
- Muscle weakness.
These symptoms can be life-changing, and you deserve compensation to help you cover any expenses you might face. We can help you access the best private treatment, therapy, and rehabilitation so you make the quickest possible recovery.
