    ORLANDO, FL, October 08, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Automobile accidents are one of the most common causes of back injuries in the United States. A back injury as a result of a car accident can be a painful, life-altering experience. Some back injuries are difficult to diagnose and are often misdiagnosed because the injury is not always visible and obvious to the casual observer.

Back injuries sustained as a result of a car accident can include whiplash, lumbar or lower back sprain and strain, spinal cord injuries and compression fractures of the bones of the spine.

Whiplash is one of the most common back injuries related to automobile accidents. There are over one million whiplash injuries involving car accidents every year in this country. Whiplash can lead to long term disability as it can cause serious injury to the joints, discs, muscles, nerves and ligaments.

Lumbar or lower back sprain and strain injuries can result in debilitating pain in the larger muscles of the lower back. Pain caused by this injury can occur on one or both sides of the lower back, may worsen with activity and cause nighttime muscle spasms making sleep almost impossible.

Spinal cord injuries caused by a car accident include contusions, compression and lacerations. Spinal cord car accident injuries can cause serious nerve damage resulting in paralysis and loss of sensation. Spinal cord injury can lead to infection, sexual dysfunction, muscle spasms, and loss of bladder control.

Back injuries caused by automobile accidents are one of the most debilitating and painful injuries anyone can sustain. Even young and strong individuals can be disabled by an injury to the back.

Symptoms of Injury to the Back
• Chronic or intermittent back pain
• Numbness in the extremities
• Muscle weakness
• Bladder and/or bowel dysfunction
• Paralysis

If you have suffered a back injury due to an automobile accident you may be eligible for compensation for medical expenses, loss of wages and future earning potential, rehabilitation costs and pain and suffering.
