A pinched nerve may cause excruciating pain. It can affect several parts of your body, including your neck, back, arms, and legs.
Nerve damage can result from physical trauma, such as a car crash. In some cases, a pinched nerve can completely disrupt your life, making it impossible for you to carry out your everyday activities.
If your injury was caused by someone else’s careless behavior, you may be able to file a claim to recover your costs. For example, if a distracted driver crashed into you while you were crossing the street, then they should have to pay for your medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses.

A pinched nerve, known as radiculopathy, happens when too much pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissue. Bones, cartilage, tendons, and muscles can all impose on a nerve, causing swelling and fluid buildup.
Sharp pains will often radiate from a pinched nerve. The pain may grow so intense that it becomes completely debilitating. Symptoms of a pinched nerve include:

I was rear-ended by someone who didn’t see me slowing for traffic in front of her because she had a dog in her car and she was handling her dog instead of watching the road.
