About This Condition

Understanding Herniated Disc Treatment

A herniated disc occurs when the soft inner material of a spinal disc pushes through the tougher outer layer, potentially compressing nearby nerves. Car accidents are one of the leading causes of traumatic disc herniations. These injuries can cause debilitating pain, numbness, weakness, and significant functional limitations. While many herniated discs respond well to conservative chiropractic treatment, proper documentation including MRI imaging is essential for both treatment planning and personal injury case value.

Legal Context

New York Law & Your Herniated Disc Claim

New York is a no-fault insurance state, meaning your own auto insurance policy's PIP (Personal Injury Protection) coverage pays for your medical treatment regardless of who caused the accident. The minimum PIP coverage in New York is $50,000, which covers chiropractic treatment, lost wages, and other accident-related expenses. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in New York is 3 years. After this deadline, you lose the right to file a lawsuit for your injuries. New York uses a pure comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage is available in New York and can help cover chiropractic treatment costs regardless of fault determination.
