If you have suffered a work-related neck or back injury, you know the cost is measured by more than lost wages.
In a report published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics there were 4.4 million private industry cases of non-fatal occupational injuries and illnesses. Of these cases, more than 50% lost time from work, transferred to a different job, or was restricted from work activity. Granted, not all 4.4 million cases were spine-related injuries. However, in an earlier report, the Bureau revealed some 880,000 cases were back pain-related injuries. At Comprehensive Centers for Pain Management, we see many patients with long-lasting chronic pain due to their occupation. What are the best options? Live in pain forever? Extensive surgery? Quit your job?…. NO. The best option is to call and make an appointment with one of our board certified specialists today! (419) 843-1370
