Personal Injury Treated in Granada Hills

Pain Management on Lien — What It Means for You

If you were injured through no fault of your own and do not have health insurance — or if your health insurance will not cover accident-related treatment — you should not have to choose between getting better and pursuing your legal rights. At Modern Pain Solutions in Granada Hills, CA , we accept lien-based cases for qualified personal injury patients.

A medical lien is a legal agreement in which Modern Pain Solutions agrees to provide treatment now, with payment deferred until the resolution of your personal injury claim or lawsuit. Your treatment costs are paid from your settlement or verdict — not out of your pocket before your case resolves. This arrangement ensures that every injured patient who comes to us gets the care they need, regardless of their current insurance status or financial situation.

We work with personal injury attorneys throughout Granada Hills, Encino, Northridge, North Hills, Sherman Oaks, Tarzana, Van Nuys, Porter Ranch, Reseda, San Fernando Valley, and greater Los Angeles. If your attorney has referred you to us — or if you need a referral to an attorney — call (818) 826-4145 and our team will help coordinate your care.

Injuries We Treat After Car Accidents & Personal Injury

Dr. Lim treats the full range of injuries that commonly result from motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, workplace incidents, and other traumatic events. Conditions we regularly evaluate and treat include:

• Whiplash and cervical spine injuries — Soft tissue damage, ligament sprains, and disc injuries of the neck caused by the rapid forward-backward or side-to-side motion of a collision. Even low-speed impacts can cause significant cervical injuries that may not be fully apparent for days after the accident.
• Herniated and bulging discs — Traumatic force can rupture spinal discs in the cervical or lumbar spine, causing nerve compression, radiating pain, numbness, and weakness into the arms or legs.
• Lumbar spine injuries — Lower back strains, ligament injuries, facet joint trauma, and disc injuries are among the most common accident-related complaints. See our Back & Neck Pain page.
• Facet joint syndrome — Injury and inflammation of the small joints along the spine that frequently occurs following rear-end collisions and is a common source of chronic post-accident neck and back pain.
• Nerve injuries and radiculopathy — Compression or trauma to spinal nerve roots causing shooting, burning, or electric pain radiating into the arms or legs.
• Shoulder injuries — Rotator cuff tears, labral damage, and joint injuries from bracing during impact or from direct trauma. See our Shoulder Pain page.
• Hip and knee injuries — Joint trauma, ligament injuries, and cartilage damage common in high-impact collisions. See our Hip & Knee Pain page.
• Soft tissue injuries — Muscle strains, ligament sprains, and tendon tears throughout the spine and extremities.
• Compression fractures — Vertebral fractures that may result from high-impact accidents, treatable with Kyphoplasty.
• Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) — A severe chronic pain condition that can develop following traumatic injury, characterized by burning pain, skin changes, and autonomic dysfunction in an affected limb.
• Traumatic nerve damage — Peripheral nerve injuries causing chronic pain, numbness, and weakness following accident trauma.
• Work injury pain — Injuries sustained through workplace accidents, repetitive motion, and occupational stress, including workers’ compensation cases.
