Understanding Auto Accident Injuries
The sudden impact involved in most car accidents can cause severe jarring of the highly complex neuromuscular system, especially in the neck and back. This is often the area where many accident victims experience discomfort. What may initially be minor aches and pains can be a signal that more significant damage occurred. Because the neuromuscular system effects far reaching parts of the body, damage can cause pain throughout the body.
Whiplash, a straining of the neck, is common in car accidents. This occurs when the head rapidly snaps back and forth or side to side on the neck. Symptoms can range from headaches to complete immobility. In some cases, sufferers may experience sleeplessness, irritability, tingling in the extremities and other pain. It can be tempting to suffer through the initial pain of whiplash but left untreated, issues may get worse and could result in long lasting unnecessary pain and suffering.
Common Auto Accident Injuries We Treat
Whiplash & Neck Injuries
▼Whiplash occurs when the head rapidly snaps back and forth or side to side on the neck. Symptoms can range from headaches to complete immobility. In some cases, sufferers may experience sleeplessness, irritability, tingling in the extremities and other pain. Early treatment is crucial to prevent long-lasting complications.
Back & Spinal Injuries
▼The sudden impact can cause severe jarring of the neuromuscular system, especially in the back. What may initially be minor aches and pains can signal more significant damage. Our comprehensive evaluation identifies and treats spinal misalignments and soft tissue injuries.
Soft Tissue Damage
▼Auto accidents often cause damage to muscles, ligaments, and tendons throughout the body. Because the neuromuscular system affects far-reaching parts of the body, damage can cause pain in unexpected areas. Our treatment addresses both primary and secondary injury sites.
Headaches & Neurological Symptoms
▼Post-accident headaches, dizziness, and tingling are common neurological symptoms. These issues often stem from cervical spine misalignments and nerve irritation. Our chiropractic care addresses the root cause of these symptoms for lasting relief.
How Alcoa Chiropractic Can Help
After your initial consultation and exam, our staff will document your injuries as being accident related. This is critical for insurance purposes and potentially important for any legal proceedings that may take place in the future.
