Back, Neck & Joint Pains
There are numerous joint, back and neck injuries that can lead to a medical disability determination by the Social Security Administration (SSA), including:
- Herniated disks
- Bulging disks
- Degenerative disk disease
- Nerve impingement
- Degenerative arthritis
- Fibromyalgia
If you are experiencing back, neck or joint problems, seek medical treatment as soon as possible and be sure to tell the doctor about all of your symptoms. Don't leave anything out and don't minimize how they're affecting you. You may also want to keep a journal. All of these actions can help establish a strong medical foundation to claim SSDI for joint, back or neck injuries.
Getting the Federal Government to Agree With Your Doctor
Sitting, standing, walking, driving and even sleeping can be nearly unbearable activities for people who suffer from joint, back or neck injuries — all of which can make it difficult, if not impossible, to work. But convincing the government that such injuries qualify you for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is still a problem.
If you don't think it will be a problem for you, consider that roughly half of all disability claims involve back, neck or joint-related medical problems and that nearly one million disability claims are initially denied each year by the SSA — most by people who didn't hire an attorney.
