NEXT STEPS: WHAT TO DO IF YOUR PAIN ISN’T GETTING BETTER?

If you’re recovering from a workplace injury and your pain isn’t improving as expected:

  • Tell your treating doctor about any new or worsening symptoms.
  • Follow your treatment plan and attend scheduled appointments.
  • Keep a record of changes in your pain, mobility, or daily activities.
  • Don’t assume a pre-existing condition automatically means your claim will be denied.
  • If you receive a denial or have questions about your claim, ask for an explanation and understand your options before giving up.

Recovery isn’t always a straight line, and neither is the workers’ compensation process. Staying informed and speaking up about your symptoms can make an important difference.
