Understanding accident-related back pain

Why can your lower back hurt after a car accident?

A motor vehicle collision can expose the body to sudden forces and changes in movement. Lower back symptoms can differ significantly between people, which is why individualized assessment matters.

P

Lower Back Pain

You may notice aching, soreness or discomfort around the lower back following the collision.

S

Stiffness

The lower back or hips may feel stiff after sitting, sleeping, driving or remaining in one position.

B

Difficulty Bending

Bending forward, getting dressed or reaching toward the floor may feel more difficult.

D

Driving Discomfort

Sustained sitting and getting in or out of a vehicle can become uncomfortable during recovery.

L

Reduced Lifting Tolerance

Groceries, children, work equipment and household tasks may feel harder when strength or confidence has decreased.

A

Reduced Activity

Some people reduce exercise, walking or recreation because certain movements feel uncomfortable.

Treatment + rehabilitation

Recovery means more than reducing pain.

As symptoms improve, recovery often shifts toward rebuilding your ability to sit, drive, lift, work, exercise and move comfortably again.
