Also, this type of impact either with a steering wheel or with a full frontal impact of the airbag deployment can cause a condition called temporomandibular joint syndrome. Now let's talk a minute about what that is. Temporomandibular joint syndrome is an irregularity or inflammation or an injury to your temporomandibular joint.
Seatbelt Injuries. The sudden deceleration and restraint might cause contusion, possible rib fractures, or other internal injuries with particularity. The issue of rotator cuff injury is reversed from the driver side to the passenger side. So, the first place we would look for a rotator cuff injury would be on the right shoulder and alternatively to the left shoulder that might strike something due to the extreme rotation caused by the impact, Which force is then transmitted to the passenger’s body. The sudden deceleration and restraint might cause contusions, possible rib fractures or other internal injuries due to the force of the human body being slammed into the restraining strap of the seatbelt system. If the airbag deploys injuries related to its rapid inflation, such as abrasions or burns, as well as possible brain injuries or temporomandibular joint injuries must be checked for as well.
