Types of Neck Injuries
Neck injuries range from mild strains to permanent spinal damage. Some of the most common types of neck injuries include:
- Whiplash – A soft tissue injury caused by a sudden jolt, often from car accidents.
- Herniated Discs – When a spinal disc bulges or ruptures, causing nerve pain and mobility issues.
- Cervical Fractures – A broken neck bone that can lead to severe complications.
- Nerve Damage – Damage to the spinal cord or nerves that can result in numbness, weakness, or paralysis.
- Strains and Sprains – Overextension of muscles and ligaments, leading to stiffness and pain.
Neck injuries can worsen over time, and some may lead to chronic pain or long-term disability, making proper medical care and legal action essential.

Insurance companies often claim neck injuries are due to “degenerative changes” to minimize payouts. However, if an accident worsened a pre-existing condition or caused a new injury, you still have a case. Our medical experts can differentiate between natural aging and trauma-related damage to fight for the compensation you deserve.
