HEALTH TIP

View the Back Pain Slideshow PicturesNeck and Back Injuries Facts

  • Trauma to the neck and back can lead to spinal cord injury and permanent disability.
  • If trauma occurs, the neck and back should be splinted and movement should be avoided.
  • Accurately determining the cause and extent of the injury is important.
  • The vertebral column has many ligaments and muscles that protect the spinal cord and assist in movement.
  • Injury to any of these structures may cause significant and debilitating pain, even if a neck or back injury does not involve the nerves.

Neck and Back Injuries Symptoms



  • Someone with a neck or back injury may have localized pain, tenderness, and stiffness. Muscles on either side of the spinal column may spasm immediately after an injury or up to 24 hours later.
  • Numbness, tingling, or paralysis of an extremity indicates that a more serious injury may have occurred.
  • Any penetrating injury to the neck requires immediate treatment. Leave the object in place until medical personnel can remove 

Neck and Back Injuries Treatment


  • Immobilize the head, neck, and back. Place soft packing on either side of the head to prevent side-to-side motion. Clothing or towels are handy for this purpose.
  • If the victim needs to vomit, roll the head, neck, and body as a unit so the person rests on his or her side (preferably, one person should control the head of the person with the injury while another person rolls the shoulders and hips).
  • Monitor the victim for loss of movement and development of numbness.
