Auto Accident

Following an auto accident the first few questions and thoughts you have are:

1 – how bad is my car damaged?

2 – how bad is their car damaged?

3 – what are the costs going to be?

4 – who was at fault and going to pay?

...usually the last thought for someone is how am I feeling and how am I going to feel?

Injuries sustained during an auto accident can become life alternating and debilitating if not treated correctly right away. Todays' cars are designed to withstand the forces of an auto accident and have minimal damage following a crash. When a car does not ‘crumble’ something/someone has to take the force … the passengers!

Auto Accident injuries may show themselves as pain and stiffness are common, but other symptoms can include headaches, neck pain, numbness and tingling, arm pain, nausea, dizziness, vision changes, low back pain, sciatica, difficulty concentrating, difficulty swallowing, jaw pain, sore throat, hoarse voice, insomnia, anxiety, light headedness, ringing in the ears, shoulder pain or wrist pain.

The symptoms from an auto accident may not always be so clear and may take months or years to develop if never treated correctly.

No matter how minor the crash seems to be, getting evaluated for a spinal injury and seeking care if needed from a chiropractor as soon as possible following the accident can greatly improve your chances for a full recovery.
