Craniofacial Trauma
Trauma is among the most severe medical conditions. It causes disfigurement, impairment, or even death. Despite recent declines in absolute numbers, it remains the top cause of mortality among teens and young adults.
Facial trauma is characterized as any injury to the face’s hard and soft tissues. It could appear as a separate injury or as a subset of injuries in a polytrauma patient. Some of the causal factors of facial trauma involve motor vehicle accidents, interpersonal violence, self-inflicted wounds, sports injuries, burns, falls, work-related accidents, animal attacks, gunfire, and explosions.
Facial injuries can range from minor bruises to severe pan facial damage. The source of the damage, as well as the intensity of the impact, both have a role in the complexity of the wound.
The clinical diagnosis of facial injuries varies substantially based on facial structure damage. Symptoms are frequently visible in situations of soft tissue damage. The patient’s or peers’ background, together with the evident effect of the hit, makes the diagnosis clear.
Medical indications of skeletal injuries are determined by the damaged bone. Fractures of the facial bones can cause discomfort, bruising, and edema of the surrounding tissues; however, these symptoms can also occur in the absence of fractures. Nosebleeds can be caused by fractures of the nose, the base of the skull, or the maxilla. Nasal fractures can be linked to nasal deformity, edema, or bruising. Face deformity, such as a depressed cheekbone or teeth that do not line properly, indicates the existence of fractures. Asymmetry could indicate facial fractures or nerve injury. People with mandibular fractures frequently experience pain and discomfort opening their mouths, as well as lip and chin numbness.
