Understanding Work Related Injuries

Work-related back injuries can develop in both sedentary and active work environments.

The most common causes of these injuries include:

Heavy lifting
If you exert force on your back by lifting or moving heavy objects, you risk developing a back injury.
Repetitive movements
Constant twisting and rotating can injure your back over time.
Sedentary work
Sitting at a desk and working on a computer all day can result in chronic back pain – especially if you have poor posture.
If you’re experiencing back pain due to a work-related injury, our spine specialists can help you identify the underlying cause, treat the pain – and prevent the issue from recurring.
If you have a mild injury, it may be treatable with conservative home remedies. However, a more severe problem may require therapy, prescription pain medication, or surgery.

Do you qualify for worker’s compensation?

If you sustain a work-related back injury, you may qualify for worker’s compensation. During this process, our experts will need to diagnose you with one of the following:

Temporary partial disability: You can resume your old job after treatment.

Permanent partial disability: You can return to work, but you need a new position. You can no longer complete your former tasks.

Permanent total disability: You cannot return to your former position or any work at all due to your injury.
