Our Physicians Help Treat the Following Car Wreck Injuries

Our personal injury doctors check for the following conditions immediately after a motor vehicle accident:

Whiplash Injuries and Symptoms

Although whiplash can be caused by a number of things, it’s most commonly linked with automobile accidents.

Whiplash occurs when the force of an impact causes your head to snap forward and then violently rebound back. 

This violent motion can damage the delicate nerves in the spinal cord and cause a massive shear force on the tissues in the neck.

The first step in determining whether you have whiplash is to examine your symptoms.

Common symptoms of whiplash injury include:

• Neck pain
• Migraines
• Pain when rotating or bending the head
• Facial Pain
• Headaches
• Brain Fog
• Dizziness
• Tingling in the arms and hands
• Blurred vision
• Ringing in the ears

If your accident doctor suspects a fracture, dislocation or soft tissue injury, they might recommend x-rays or a MRI to evaluate the full extent of the damage.

In most cases, whiplash is treated through rest and the application of ice/heat. They might also look to fully stabilize the area with a cervical collar to prevent further damage.

In many neck realted injury cases, your doctor might recommend that you see a specialist to assist you with manual therapies or chiropractic adjustments.

Soft Tissue Damage

Soft tissue injuries are injuries to the nerves, tendons, and ligaments.

These types of injuries can take various forms including:

• Sprains: damage to a ligament due to the overextension of a joint. Symptoms of a strain include localized pain in the area of impact, ongoing muscle spasm, muscle weakness and nerve weakness, swelling, inflammation, and cramping.
• Strains: A strain is an elongation and tearing of a ligament. Ligaments stabilize and support the body's joints. When a ligament is damaged in a crash, it creates a joint laxity. This laxity in a joint can cause any area of your spine to move past its typical range of motion and create high levels of nerve pain or muscle splinting. This puts an incredible amount of stress on your vertebral discs, two types of ligament strains that occur during a Car Accident are Whiplash and a Spondylolisthesis. 
• Contusions: A contusion is a bruise caused by a direct blow, smashing underlying muscle fibers and connective tissue without puncturing the skin, the bruise is a pooling of blood underneath the skin.

Back Pain

Depending on the type of car accident you were involved in, you might also experience lower back pain.
Back pain due to a car accident is caused by the sudden jolt or force of the impact.

Back pain can become a chronic issue if not treated immediately after the accident.

Our doctors will looks at the spine and tissues surrounding the spine to see what damage has been sustained.

Treatment for back pain depends on the type of injury you sustained, but can include medication, chiropractic adjustments, ice/heat, electrical stimulation, facet injections,  spinal stimulation, and more.
