Injured by a Massage Therapist: Seeking Legal Advice

anyone have experience with personal injury lawyers? has anyone gotten injured by a massage therapist before? went to one who supposedly knew about hypermobile joints.. he cracked my neck/back extremely aggressively and i left 100% worse than i went in. couldn't sit up for a week. 3 weeks into my recovery and i can only be up for about an hour before pain is too bad to bare. looking into maybe suing him. apparently only chiros can do "spinal manipulation" in texas. any advice? 🥲

First step is to see a doctor and get imaging something could be terribly wrong then I’d give it a few weeks if they find something or if it doesn’t get any better I’d definitely sue

Organize as many medical documents you can that include any continued or additional treatments to your pain. If you haven't yet and if you're comfortable enough with going to an ER or urgent care for an assessment and notation of everything that's gotten worse since the massage would be good too. Beyond that I'm sure a consultation with a lawyer could give you some more insight on what to do in your situation.
