When you suffer from a back injury due to a car, truck, motorcycle, or bike accident the most common injuries are muscle sprains/strains, bulging discs, herniated discs, or ruptured discs. Because of the trauma of an accident, the discs can be pushed out from between the vertebrae, causing pain in other areas of your body. Many people suffer from a “radiating pain” either down their arm(s), leg(s), or both. This is because the bulging or herniated disc(s) is applying pressure to the spinal cord. If you are experiencing this radiating pain it is extremely important to see your doctor immediately, to ensure proper treatment.
These injuries can be very difficult to diagnose and insurance companies will use delays in diagnosis and treatment to deny or lower payment it owes injured accident victims. Do not wait or delay in seeking advice because that may result in you having to personally pay for injuries caused by another party.
An experienced personal injury attorney will recognize your injuries and make sure you get the treatment you need.
