The throw rug slipped from under my feet and I slipped and fell hard with my lower back hitting the top of the washer. It isn’t bruised but it hurts horribly. I can’t press on it at all. I’m jsut wondering if I should go into urgent care or if I should give it a few days. I took excedrin extra strength and its not helping. This just happened yesterday.

Fell on the cement 2 weeks ago. I went to urgent care. They said there was a lot of swelling but thought it was siatica. (no mri was done) Now in my spine it popps all the time and it still hurts down my left leg and into my foot(from my buttocks) Anyone know why that could be?

My lower back is killing me! Bend a certain way, getting in and out of the car, lifting my legs (putting on pants, etc.), stabbing pain right at the bottom of my back. It doesn’t feel muscular, but almost like it could use a good crack. Does anyone with a back problem know if this COULD be a slipped or herniated disk, artheritis, or what??? If it could be something the dr. will just say I have to live with, then so be it. I just wonder if anyone has these symptoms and what I might be facing ahead. If it’s worse tomorrow, I will have to go to urgent care and get it checked.

I was hit in the three months ago by a sixteen year-old who ran a red arrow turn light. She was cited and I was not. I did not think I was hurt at the accident, but realized that I had shoulder and neck pain later that night. I went to the urgent care through my doctor who gave me vicodin and a muscle relaxer, and then I went back in two weeks due to continuing pain. I was sent to a physical therapist, which I went to twice a week for the past few months, and once a week the last two weeks. My PT has given me stretching exercises to do at home but has said I am done with the treatment.

Her insurance has accepted liability and already paid for my car to be fixed (just under ,000) and for a rental car. They knew I was seeking treatment for the accident, and I am getting ready to send a letter asking them to request all my medical bills and records so they can offer a settlement. How much do you think my claim is worth?

Yesterday I was involved in a 5 vehicle auto accident. I was waiting at the stop light to turn left and a truck and a motorcycle collided in the intersection. The motorcycist flew up in the air and landed funny. The truck kept going and I noticed how fast it was going towards me. It hit my car head on and pushed my car back about 1.5 car lengths in a 90 degree angle. The truck bulldozed into a nissian truck and GMC Yukon. Obviously from the photos, it proves that he was going at a fast pace because of the damage and for pushing a still object that far.

The motorcycist may have passed away and crime scene detectives arrived to photograph the area. The road was closed and traffic was detered. My car suffered extensive frontal damage and my radiator was cracked in half. I suffered no fractures, but I am very sore today. I went to urgent care and the doctor told me to see my PCP to have her review if I should see physical therapy.

My friend suggested a lawyer because the accident could be manslaughter and because one party hit 4 different cars. I believe my car is totaled and I will be sore for a while. To this extent, should I hire a lawyer because of the occurance and because the driver at fault’s insurance might try to screw me over because they have to pay for 4 parties cars, and maybe a wrongful death suit.

If so, would the lawyer make sure I get compensated well for my totaled car? I know this is going to be a huge inconvenience.
It wasn’t about making a profit, I am worried that I will lose out on a car or not get paid enough to purchase a new one. I just bought it 2 years ago.
