A bulging disk can cause severe, debilitating and prolonged pain. These injuries are often the result of an accident like an automobile accident, a slip and fall incident, or work-related event. A bulging disk injury may require surgery, physical therapy, pain medications, oral steroids, or epidural injections to treat\u2014an often expensive remedy. If you suffer from a bulging disk injury as a result of someone else\u2019s actions, you may be able to recoup any monetary loss through negotiation of a bulging disk settlement with your insurance provider or the insurance company of the responsible party. A personal injury lawyer can advise you of the likelihood of collecting damages for your injury and help you calculate just how much compensation you deserve.<\/p>\n

The actual amount you might gain from a bulging disk settlement depends on a variety of factors, including the severity of the injury, the cost of treatment, the degree of liability on the part of another, prior back injuries, and prior claims that you have filed (back related or not). A bulging disk injury can result in lifelong pain, permanent injuries, and costly medical treatment, sometimes impairing an individual to the point where he or she cannot work or must switch jobs to compensate for the injury.<\/p>\n

Just Exactly What Is a Bulging Disc?<\/b><\/p>\n

Often referred to as a herniated disc, a bulging disc is a medical condition that affects the sponge-like, oval-shaped cushion between your vertebrae. Functioning as shock absorbers for the spine, discs are made of a fibrous outer layer of tissue that encases a gel-like center. The Mayo Clinic\u2019s website<\/a> describes discs as resembling a miniature jelly donut, to give you an idea of what one looks like. Contributing to flexibility of the back and protection of the spinal cord, disc damage needs to be treated so as to avoid nerve root impingement or irritation that could result in numbness, muscle weakness, traveling pain, tingling and other disabling symptoms.<\/p>\n

About ten percent of those who have a bulging disk diagnosis undergo surgery. An often costly procedure with the possibility of an extended recovery period, surgery is recommended only for those who have worsening nerve damage, severe numbness, severe weakness, or pain that cannot be controlled with nonsurgical treatments. The sooner you receive medical treatment after an accident where a back injury was sustained that could led to a bulging disk, the better in terms of both your physical well-being and your ability to negotiate a bulging disk settlement agreement to cover the cost of any future medical assistance you may need.<\/p>\n

A bulging disk injury is often associated with pain in parts of your body other than your back. Since the bulging of the disk presses on spinal nerves, you can conceivably feel pain in almost any part of your body as a result of the condition. Consequently, it is wise to always have yourself checked out by a physician following any kind of accident that involves a potential back injury. Don\u2019t think that just because you feel okay after the initial incident that all is well.<\/p>\n

Portland Car Accident Passengers Should Have Sought a Medical Evaluation<\/b><\/p>\n

A case in point, just a couple of days ago, The Oregonian<\/i> reported a single-car accident that occurred in Portland,<\/a> in which a young woman died after the car she was riding in hit a tree. According to the article, two other passengers were reported to have not required medical attention. While we hope that the two other passengers were truly uninjured, our belief is that medical attention should have been sought. A car crash with an impact severe enough to cause a death definitely warrants a medical exam of anyone traveling with the victim. As experienced Portland personal injury lawyers, DuBois Law Group would encourage anyone involved in an accident of any kind to seek medical evaluation.<\/p>\n
