What To Do After an Accident Leads to Neck and Back Pain

February 14, 2020 by David R. Heil, PA

All too often, debilitating neck and back pain is brought on by a variety of causes. Car and truck accidents, slip and fall incidents, and medical malpractice is prevalent among personal injury claims. We understand that personal injuries can cause immense physical, emotional, and financial stress. Don’t accept a settlement from an insurance company before contacting a professional personal injury lawyer. With over 35 years of experience as a personal injury attorney in Orlando, I can provide you with the legal assistance you need. 

Accidents that cause neck and back pain

If you’ve ever been in a car accident, you already know how seriously damaging they can be to the neck and back. These areas of the body are crucial to our daily lives, and yet they are very sensitive to sudden movement and force. If you are a victim of neck or back injury, you may be entitled to compensation for any lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. These frequent and often preventable accidents are just a few of the reasons individuals seek medical care each year. If you have experienced any of the following, contact David R. Heil, PA: 

  • Bicycle accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Car and truck accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Slip and fall accidents

Treatment for neck and back pain 

Thousands of people seek medical attention for whiplash every year, with the vast majority of victims suffering from motor vehicle accidents and rear-end collisions. Whiplash refers to neck injuries caused by an abrupt jerking motion of the head. This sudden movement causes great strain in the ligaments and muscles in the neck. Most commonly, the symptoms of whiplash arise in the first 24 hours following a traumatic incident. The effects may include but are not limited to headaches, dizziness, stiffness in the neck, and pain when turning your head. 

Doctors will perform tests such as Xrays, MRIs, and CT scans to diagnose a whiplash injury and determine the right course of treatment. Although some victims of whiplash heal in just a few months with treatment, individuals can suffer from symptoms for months or even years. Some develop chronic pain that is difficult to treat and involves medication that can seriously inhibit their other abilities. Patients may also undergo physical therapy sessions or even surgery to repair the nerves or structural damage to the vertebrae and spine. 

Contact a neck and back pain attorney in Orlando

As you can see, treatment for whiplash and other neck and back injuries can be expensive. Neck and back injuries are usually caused by another person’s negligence or recklessness. In these cases, the victim can take legal action against the other party to receive compensation for their losses. Get started by compiling all treatment-related paperwork and contact an Orlando attorney with experience in injury claims. David R. Heil, PA, is a personal injury attorney who can guide you through the process and make sure you get the compensation that you deserve.
