When there are accidents that leave people with head, neck or back injuries, it’s very important that doctors check for spinal cord injuries. Some spinal cord injuries where the victim survives can leave them in permanent pain and suffering.
Your spinal cord is in your body to send messages from the brain into your nerves throughout the body. It is a fairly protected area in your body, so anyone who suffers from spinal cord injuries must have been in a pretty traumatic event.
Often, when there is a spinal cord injury, there will also be broken vertebrae or dislocated discs in the spine. This type of damage can be irreparable.
Spinal cord injury victims may have to deal with the following symptoms:
If you have been seriously hurt and have spinal cord damage, it is so important to call and set up a free consultation with our Boise spinal cord injury attorneys. We can help you get the help you need and start building a strong case for you right away to get you full results.
Our Boise spinal cord injury attorneys have handled numerous cases just like yours and we strive to help injured victims in our community. You get to sit down and go over the details of your case during a free initial consultation with a personal injury attorney who has given other victims justice. If the insurance company of the liable party does not come to us with a fair result, we will keep fighting until you get it. If that means we go to trial to get justice, we will do that for you. Most cases come to a settlement before they go to trial, but we prepare your case with the belief that we need to be ready to go, if it comes to that.
There are two types of spinal cord injuries: incomplete and complete. If the spinal cord completely severs, it results in loss of both mobility and sensation in all areas below the injury. With incomplete injuries, the spinal cord partially severs.
Incomplete spinal cord injuries are broken down into further categories:
Your health is the most important thing. You should not hesitate to get yourself in front of a doctor. Odds are your accident left you in immense pain, if you suffered a spinal cord injury. This is likely not something you can ignore and by no means should you try.
Going to the emergency room or even an urgent care facility is a good first move.
From there, you need to follow the advice of your doctors. If they set you up with physical therapy, want you to get certain treatments, avoid certain activities, etc., you need to be prudent and follow their advice.
If, for instance, you did not get medical attention right away and wait a few weeks somehow, the insurance company is going to look at that behavior and claim you lied about your injuries or where you got them from, which means your case might get thrown out. They don’t care that you pushed through the pain to be there for your family or couldn’t get the time off work. You need to prioritize your health.
If you don’t follow your doctor’s advice, you risk ruining your wellbeing and your case. If the doctor tells you not to lift anything more than 15 pounds but you’re lugging around your kid’s hockey bag, that is not going to help you heal. Also, the insurance companies may be looking to hire private investigators to see if plaintiffs are disobeying orders like that from their doctor because it gives the insurance company a reason to try to throw away your case.
Odds are you’ve never had a serious spinal cord injury that was a result of a liable party causing an accident. That means you may have never had to go through a personal injury case. We understand how difficult life becomes for spinal cord victims. Having to try to get the justice you need without the help of an expert who has gone through these cases before seems unnecessary.
