Boston,
Franklin and Hyde Park Personal Injury Lawyers
The most common injury from accidents is to the soft tissues
(muscles, ligaments or tendons) of the body. Often referred to as strains or
sprains, soft tissue injuries to the back, neck or shoulders can result in
severe and chronic pain and swelling.
Almost any type of trauma to the body can have the effect of causing a soft
tissue injury. Strains and/or sprains can result from lifting a heavy object or
from a slip and fall accident. Soft tissue injury can also result from the whiplash
motion such as that which occurs in a motor vehicle accident.
The most frequent soft tissue
injuries are:
- neck sprains;
- Back strains and back sprains;
- Ankle strains and ankle sprains;
- Knee strains and knee sprains;
- Shoulder strains and shoulder sprains.
Injuries to the muscles, ligaments
and tendons are generally treated with physical therapy, massage therapy and
chiropractic manipulation. Pain medications and anti-inflammatory medications
are also commonly prescribed to individuals suffering from soft tissue
injuries.
Because it is difficult to prove the
presence of a soft tissue injury from diagnostic testing, insurance companies
often dispute the extent of suffering that results from these types of
injuries. To ensure that you are properly compensated for all of your pain and
suffering resulting from a soft tissue injury, you need an experienced soft tissue
injury attorney at your side.
The attorneys at Yellin and Hyman, P.C. have a long
history of assisting individuals with all types of soft tissue injuries. We
have experience representing clients with soft tissue injuries from all types
of accidents, including those that occurred on the job ( workers' compensation).
