It's expected that nearly all servicemen and women have had at least one concussive event or blast injury, with many Marine combat units reporting five to seven events during their military careers. These events can lead to:
These injuries can produce side effects which include, but are not limited to:
|
Cognitive Issues |
Headaches |
|
Decreased attention span |
Memory loss or disturbance |
|
Language difficulties |
Joint pain |
|
Domestic violence and/or suicide |
Muscle pain |
|
Irritability |
Imbalance |
|
Depression and anxiety |
Inability to efficiently process information |
Many of these symptoms can be healed through the use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). However, the benefits provided by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs seldom cover the entire expense of HBOT. America's finest young men and women should receive the best-possible treatments available, without worrying about how to pay for them.
