Can you hurt your back in a fender bender?

If you or a loved one has experienced back pain from an injury from an accident, contact 844 See Mike for a free consultation so we can help you recover from this experience and get fairly compensated

A fender bender may be considered a mild and common type of accident due to a slow rear-end collision or a parking lot collision. But still, it can still cause damage and injury to the people involved. It may be frustrating and stressful to deal with your physical injuries, the trauma of the accident, and the financial burden that was sprung on you. If you were not at fault for an accident, we can help you file a claim for your injuries and damages so that you are compensated for what you have experienced.

Although it’s a minor accident, a fender bender can cause whiplash, a neck injury that is often caused by the back-and-forth motion that is involved in a collision between two cars. You may feel neck and shoulder pain, but these symptoms also can be delayed and you may recognize them days later. Your doctor can usually treat whiplash with conservative treatment of rest, icing the area, and pain medications.

In addition, you may have experienced a mild strain or sprain in the back or neck. Whether or not you feel symptoms for injuries like these immediately after the accident or days later is dependent on the situation. Symptoms are also often masked by the shock of the situation. This late onset of symptoms for certain injuries and conditions is one of many reasons that you should seek medical attention immediately after any type of accident. You risk worsening the injury by refusing or brushing off immediate treatment, which will take a physical toll on you, as well as a financial toll. While fender benders are considered minor accidents, they can still cause damage, and you deserve to be treated and back to feeling normal as soon as possible so that you can resume your everyday activities.

If another person caused your injuries, you can file a claim against them for monetary damages.
