life 75% of people will experience back and neck

that appear minor at the time. An accident can
cause the back and neck to move with force in
one direction and injure the muscles. More serious
back and neck injuries involve disk injury.
Some causes of back and neck
injury include compressed nerves, back strain,
injured muscles, joints, ligaments, or bones,
ruptured disks, degenerative diseases, and changes
in spinal shape. A back and neck injury can be
the direct result of a personal injury in some
circumstances. There are many different symptoms
of back and neck injury, depending on what area
of the back and neck has been injured. Some of
