The term "injury victim" refers to an individual who has sustained some form of physical harm or injury, either through accident, negligence, violence or other means. This can include a wide range of injuries from minor cuts and bruises to more severe conditions such as broken bones, sprains, burns, head trauma or internal injuries that may require medical attention and treatment. The phrase is often used in legal contexts when referring to individuals who have filed personal injury lawsuits seeking compensation for damages resulting from their injuries.
