San Francisco Sacral Injury Lawyers
The sacrum is a bone comprised of five joined vertebrae, near the base of the spinal column. The hipbones are located on each side of the sacrum. A sacral fracture resulting from a sudden collision or broken hip pushing into the sacrum can result in severe pain in the lower back or hips. You may also experience nerve damage in the groin area and symptoms of bladder and bowel problems.
Always a Serious Injury
Sacral fractures are often missed during an initial medical exam following a serious accident. The fractures are often small, sometimes hairline, but they can develop into lifelong injuries and pain.
