What Injuries Can Chiropractors Treat?

One of the primary car accident injuries that requires chiropractic treatment is whiplash. Whiplash is quite common in rear-end accidents but can occur in any car accident. This injury occurs when the neck moves back and forth quickly and forcefully. Whiplash symptoms may manifest immediately after a car accident, or it may take time for symptoms to appear. The following are some of the symptoms to look out for after a car accident that could indicate whiplash;

  • Pain and stiffness in the neck
  • Nausea
  • Headaches
  • Blurred vision
  • Tenderness in the shoulder, upper back, or arms
  • Fatigue
  • Dizziness
  • Loss of range of motion in the neck
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Memory problems

Other injuries commonly treated with chiropractic care include the following;

  • Broken bones
  • Herniated discs
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Muscle and tissue strains

When Should You See a Chiropractor After a Florida Car Accident?

After a car accident, you should seek medical attention from a doctor, hospital, urgent care facility, or your primary care physician. The medical professional who will examine your car accident injuries will advise you on which specialists you should see, such as a chiropractor. After you are advised to see a chiropractor, it is in your best interest to do so as soon as possible. The sooner you start seeing a chiropractor, the better. Receiving prompt chiropractic care is vital in helping you recover from your injuries.

Additionally, seeing a chiropractor as soon as possible can help connect your injuries to the accident and establish the severity of your injuries. This is crucial if you end up filing a personal injury claim. If another party’s negligence caused your accident, you may be eligible to file a personal injury claim.
