1 & 2 are right
3,4 & 5 are wrong
When you use not only-- but also first thing you need to make sure is the phrase/clause is balanced. Second thing you want to make sure is that there are no redundancies in the phrase/clause. Lastly you need to make sure idiom not only -- but also makes the sentence consise and clear. Hope this helps

I think 2 is also wrong.. "caused" and "injury" are seperated by "not only". This is wonr usage.
I feel 4 is right.
1 sounds very awkward.
