Neck and Back Injuriy From Car Accidents

 



Car accidents all too often can cause neck and/or back injuries. These injuries can be strains or sprains (a stretching or tearing of the muscles and ligaments) or worse.

Victims can develop bulging, protruding or herniated discs from car accidents. These terms are often used interchangeably by doctors. Some disc injuries can cause pinching of spinal nerves.

If bad enough you can have pain going down your arms from an injury to a disc in your neck. A injury to a disc in the back can cause pain , numbness or tingling to go down the leg.

Often a Mri or Emg is used to determine if there is a disc injury and the severity of it. Sometimes physical therapy can help, often epidural steroid injections are used and ultimately if warranted surgery can be tried to help the pain.

You can be sure that the insurance company will try to argue that your injury was only minor and that the reason you are having problems is because of a preexisting injury or the aging process.

They will likely use a doctor whose opinion they can count on to discredit your injury. That's why its important that you do not make any critical mistakes in seeking the appropriate medical care or doing something else that can hurt your case.

Don't be afraid to tell your doctor if you have had previous problems as failure to disclose to your doctor a complete medical history can discredit their opinion that your injury was caused or aggravated by the car accident.

The value of the money you are entitled to is based on many factors. Verdict in these kinds of cases can range from $0 to thousands of dollars.
