Have You Suffered a Leg or Foot Injury?
Knee, ankle, leg and foot injuries can be debilitating and can take a truck driver months – or even years – to recover from, and with certain injuries full recovery is not possible. Serious leg and foot injuries can be excruciatingly painful for a trucker who must drive day-after-day with few breaks or opportunities for physical therapy. These injuries can leave a trucker unable to lift and bend as necessary to handle cargo and do basic truck maintenance and can make even simple tasks such as climbing into and exiting the cab and operating the gas and brake pedals impossible. In some severe cases, it may be impossible for the trucker to continue working as a professional driver altogether.
Simple fractures usually heal completely, but compound fractures, tendon and ligament tears, and cartilage damage can cause permanent and debilitating injuries. If you have suffered a serious knee, ankle, or foot injury, don’t try to tough it out. It is important to see a doctor so you can learn the severity of your injury and receive treatment. Ignoring a leg or foot injury can make it more serious.
