Consequences Of Back And Neck Injuries
The causes of back and neck injuries range from car accidents and work accidents to slip-and-fall accidents. In addition, some disk and nerve injuries can be caused by repetitive stress or cumulative trauma.
Serious neck and back injuries can include:
- Vertebrae fractures
- Compression of the spinal disks
- Slipped Discs
- Pinched spinal nerves
- Disc herniation
- Ruptured Discs
Fractures of the spinal vertebrae can cause continual pain, numbness and muscle weakness depending on the severity of the injury. A back or neck injury can also worsen existing degenerative disc disease. In the worst cases, damage to the spinal cord can result in paralysis.
People who suffer constant pain from these types of injuries may be unable to sit, stand, walk or sleep without pain. Working and performing day-to-day tasks may be impossible. In many cases, the painkillers necessary to combat neck and back pain cause side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness and nausea, which means that some people cannot take them and those who do are often unable to do anything but sleep.
