Neck & Back Injury Information

Injuries involving the neck and back are often devastating and can result in permanent pain for the injured person. Neck and back injuries, often are injuries to the spine, one or more discs, nerves or spinal cord and can cause lost time from work, pain, leg or arm weakness, radiculopathy and many other symptoms.

Understanding the True Extent of Neck & Back Injuries

In some cases, neck and back injuries may be minor with no permanent consequences other than temporary symptoms, such as sore muscles; however, that is not always the case. If you have been involved in an accident (such as a tractor trailer wreck or a car accident), you could suffer a permanent neck, back, or spine injury. Some of the common tests used to diagnose neck, back, and spine injuries include X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, myelograms, and more.

These tests may find a wide variety of neck and back injuries, including the following:

  • Injuries to Vertebrae (Bones in the Spine)
  • Strained Muscles
  • Sprains
  • Herniated or Bulging Discs
  • Fractured Bones
  • Cervical Dislocation
  • Nerve Impingement
  • Spinal Cord Damage
  • Stenosis
  • Degenerative Disc Disease (Exacerbation)
  • Tears / Scarring of the Soft Tissue Near the Spine
  • Nerve Damage

As there is such a large range in severity of injuries, it is critical that you work with a Lexington personal injury attorney who will be able to provide answers to your legal questions and an explanation of your legal rights.
