According to the Mayo Clinic, back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit a doctor or miss work. If you are one of the 31 million Americans who suffer from back pain then you know how serious this medical problem can be. However, getting benefits for it can be tricky. Below is some information on how to win social security disability benefits for back pain.
Even the Most Basic Movements Can Be Difficult
For most people with back troubles, the pain comes and goes but for others it's a constant, every day agonizing situation and it interferes with their work. If you are one of those people you know that even the most basic job functions like standing, walking, lifting and even sitting can bring on excruciating pain.
What Does it Take to Be Awarded Social Security Disability Benefits for Back Pain
To be awarded disability benefits you need to prove to the Social Security Administration that you are unable to perform any work even the most non-active desk-bound job. If you have chronic back pain and you are over 50 years old you need to know that Social Security will apply different rules to your case. But no matter what your age is, disability claims for back pain can be tricky, so it is a good idea to have your case evaluated by a disability professional.
