Cumulative Back Injuries CBI

Symptoms of Cumulative Back Injuries

The symptoms of CBI can range from mild discomfort to debilitating pain. Common symptoms include:

• Persistent lower back pain
• Muscle stiffness
• Numbness or tingling in the legs
• Difficulty moving or bending

Eligibility for CBI Claims

To make a claim for CBI, you must prove that your condition was caused or worsened by the work environment. Factors considered include:

• The nature of your work (manual labour, repetitive movements, etc.).
• Duration of exposure to risk factors.
• The medical evidence supporting the diagnosis of a cumulative back injury.

Time Limits for CBI Claims

As with many personal injury claims, there is a time limit for filing CBI claims. Typically, you must file within three years of the injury or when symptoms first become apparent. HPA Solicitors UK can help determine the timeline specific to your case and ensure you meet all deadlines.
