The injuries can vary broadly in type and severity based on the specifics of the accident. These could include but are not limited to fractures, contusions, lacerations, and internal injuries. Common symptoms might include pain, swelling, bruising, and loss of function in the affected area. The progress and prognosis of such injuries are heavily dependent on the particulars of the accident and the immediate medical care provided.

It's essential for a medical professional to conduct a comprehensive examination to accurately diagnose and treat the extent of the injuries.
