Types of Back Injuries we have Dealt With in Personal Injury Cases

The human spine can be classified into three main regions, namely the cervical vertebrae (located in the neck), thoracic vertebrae (located in the upper back), and lumbar vertebrae (located in the lower back). Any injury to any of these regions can be extremely hazardous and may result in severe and long-lasting damage. Some common examples of back injuries include:


  • Back sprain: A ligament is torn or stretched, which may result in swelling, bruising, pain and inability to move the injured joint.


  • Back strain: A muscle or tendon is stretched or torn, which may result in muscle spasms, pain, trouble moving the muscle and swelling.


  • Vertebrae fracture: Trauma brakes a bone in the spine, which may result in extreme pain, loss of urine or stool control, and numbness or weakness in the limbs.


  • Herniated disk: A disk which cushions or spinal column begins to protrude, which could result in severe pain, numbness or weakness in your back or limbs.
