Social Security Disability for Back Injury
You may look fine to others, and some of the time you feel fine. This is the curse of back ailments.

Proving Your Disability
The key to securing benefits for a back injury is documenting your pain and limitations. We show you how to work with your doctors to build the evidence that Social Security requires. You will need an X-ray or MRI. You need to tell your physician if you have weakness or numbness, and what activities are painful. Your medical records need to reflect any problems with sitting, standing, walking or lifting.
If you continue to see your doctor and follow the treatment plan, Coats & Todd will handle the rest. We will gather the medical evidence to support your claim and prepare you for a disability hearing.
