Can injury to neck and bulging disc after an accident affect energy level?
Patient: Hello I was involved in a car accident in September of this year. Since then I've been sleeping a lot, and my energy i very low. I suffered injury to my neck; bulging in three discs, bulging in 3 discs on my lower back, tear of my shoulder, bone impingement (shoulder), problems with rotation cuff. Are these problems affecting my energy level? Doctor: Hello,Neck stiffness and tenderness, and shoulder aches can cause tiredness and low energy levels. If you have pain, it should be treated with painkillers. I also suggest using a vitamin B supplement to boost the energy levels. I recommend to drink liquids and rest.Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
