Whilst many people do indeed see their symptoms reduce over time to the point where they have "recovered" within months of the injury. At the other end, there are cases where someone has had a horrific head injury where it is clear that from the early stages that they will sadly suffer the effects forever.

However, there are many people posting on here whom are still suffering still suffering 2, 3, 4 or more years after their initial injury.

This may sound a strange question but is there a definition of how long you have to suffer from an injury for it to be classed as permanent or is there some other classification?

Apologies if this is phrased badly - not having a good day today
