be persistant, this is your spinal cord you are dealing with, make sure the physician from workmans comp sends you to a neurosurgeon for a consult ,you need the proper treatment for this injury, otherwise it could exacerbate and become ruptured and then you would require surgery, you may have to be assertive and insist, otherwise inform them that your attorney will be in contact for neglegence of proper medical care, you'll see how quickly they respond
