Herniated disc injuries in car accidents are a common type of injury that can result from the impact of a collision. The spine is a complex structure that supports the body and allows for movement.

When a car accident occurs, the force of the impact can cause damage to these discs, leading to a herniated disc injury. You will hear people use terms like “slipped disc” or “ruptured disc” is often used to describe this condition. They all mean the same thing.

Florida is a big state both in terms of population and geographical size. It has over 21 million residents, making it the third-most populated state in the U.S. Even though it is a large state geographically, it ranks 8th in population density, and most of the population is crammed into a handful of urban hubs, including Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa, and Orlando.

Given the size of Florida’s population, it is hardly surprising that the state sees a lot of car accidents and injuries. In 2023, there were a total of 394,456 police-reported vehicle accidents in the state.
