Personal Injury Q & A

What are Some Common Personal Injuries?

Personal injuries are commonly the result of work, car, and sports accidents. Slips and falls, rear-end collisions, and overuse injuries can all cause damage to your bones, nerves, and soft tissue, resulting in pain and disability. Common types of injuries include:

● Muscle strains
● Whiplash
● Herniated discs
● Fractures
● Pinched nerves
● Torn ligaments

A muscle strain is a very common injury that can easily develop because of improper lifting, awkward movements, or repetitive stress. Issues like herniated discs and pinched nerves can cause spine and nerve damage, resulting in pain, numbness, and tingling throughout your body.

No matter the cause, personal injuries can result in both sudden acute pain and long-lasting chronic pain. At Precision Pain Management, LLC, Dr. Coccaro and his team offer a wide range of treatment options to reduce your pain and get you back to your normal routine.

How are Personal Injuries Diagnosed?

A proper diagnosis is key to successfully treating a personal injury. To perform your diagnosis, Dr. Coccaro and his team begin with a thorough physical examination and discussion of your symptoms and medical history. Depending on your condition, they may also conduct several imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs.

No two injuries are the same, so the team works with you to ensure you receive the individualized care you need. After your evaluation, Dr. Coccaro takes the time to develop a personalized treatment plan designed to minimize your pain and restore normal physical function.
