Back and Neck Injuries are very common injuries following a car, truck or pedestrian accident. Insurance Companies and politicians often play down these injuries as somehow, being “in the head” of the victim or “only whiplash” injuries that resolve quickly without little harm to the victim.
Doctors, lawyers, therapists and other health specialists, are in a better position to properly assist patients with neck or back pain than ICBC or government politicians.
That doesn’t account for the fact that injuries and life situations are entirely unique.
A “one size fits all” response to a car accident injury. Is just not practical.

Common complications can make such seemingly “minor” injuries into very serious injuries for a car accident victim. There is always a possibility of an Actual Structural Damage to the Spine.
An MRI or bone scan can reveal damage to the spine such as fissured discs, bulging discs and/or facet joint arthropathy.
Such injuries can last a lifetime and be incredibly disabling. There is nothing minor about them and they need to be taken seriously.
