If You Have Hurt Your Back, Neck or Spine at Work
Sometimes work injuries that seem minor turn out to be very serious. Mild back pain and pain or numbness into the arms or legs can actually be caused by serious spinal problems like disc herniations, bulging discs and pinched nerves.
The best way to insure you are getting the proper medical treatment for your back or neck injury is to go see a doctor as soon as possible. Even if your employer tells you not to, visiting a doctor's office, occupational clinic or emergency room is strongly recommended.
You must also be sure to notify your employer about the injury within 30 days of the accident. Workers' compensation law is complicated, and it is easy to make a mistake. The best way to obtain the benefits you are entitled to, or to insure you continue to receive the benefits you are already receiving, is to work with our Atlanta lawyers.
