The severity and nature of the injuries can vary widely, ranging from minor cuts or bruises to more serious conditions such as fractures, internal organ injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. Symptoms can also differ significantly depending on the specific injuries sustained. This condition can progress quickly, requiring immediate medical attention for diagnosis and treatment.
