Chiropractors Provide Holistic Care For Your Car Accident Back Injury

by Dr. Dean Z. Accident Injury Treatment Clinic

Even though modern cars are designed to provide complete safety to their occupants, during an auto accident it is the lower portion of our bodies that are less protected than the upper part. The impact your back bears at the time of a car crash can lead to severe spinal cord injury. The degree of your injury usually depends on the strength of the impact. Never make the mistake of assuming that a low-impact collision may not hurt your back.

 

Even A Slight Delay In Treatment Of Your Back Injury Can Be Life-Changing

Back injuries sustained during a car accident can drastically affect your quality of life. Common daily activities, such as walking, climbing stairs, or even simply getting out of bed can become extremely painful or even impossible at times with back injury.

Many car accident victims complain of delayed symptoms after being in a car crash. That is, they do not immediately experience pain in their back after a car crash and sometimes symptoms can take days or weeks to develop after the collision. These delayed symptoms often confuse car accident victims into believing that they escaped unhurt from the wreck.

So if you want to avoid long-term complications and chronic pain after a car accident, immediately schedule an appointment with a Miami car accident chiropractor today. Delays in getting yourself evaluated will not only worsen your back pain but also affect your personal injury compensation from the insurance company.

 

Back Injuries And Symptoms

The spinal column that runs down your back houses the spinal cord — one of the most delicate and vulnerable structures of our body. Any impact to our back during a car collision also affects the spinal column. High-impact collisions may even cause the spinal cord to get severed.

The back is one of the most prone areas to be injured during a car accident. This is because the back bears a large amount of the impact of the collision. Some of the common car accident related back injuries include:

●        Spinal cord injuries

●        Herniated disc

●        Soft tissue injuries

●        Fractures of the spine

When you postpone an appointment with your chiropractor to have your back injury evaluated, you risk your back injury worsening or for the pain to even become chronic in the long term. Some of the outward signs that suggest you have injured your back during a car accident, can be swelling and tenderness at the site of injury. Other signs of trauma include:

●        Pain and stiffness

●        Radiating pain that travels down the legs

●        Numbness or tingling

●        Muscle spasms

●        Inability to walk or stand for even short durations

 

Is Chiropractic Care The Perfect Option For Your Back Injury?

Treatment of your back injury usually includes rest, medication, and exercise. But with time you realize you are hooked on to your medications and there is no real or long-term relief from the back pain. That is why, instead of wasting time on self-diagnosis or home remedies, it is prudent to schedule a visit to your chiropractor.

To begin the treatment process for your back injury, your chiropractor will first evaluate and check your injuries and their severity. There may be a need to run a few imaging tests, such as an x-ray or an MRI may be done in order to pinpoint your injuries.

Chiropractors have specific experience in handling back pain, especially that resulting from car accident injury. Chiropractic care includes only natural and holistic methods of injury treatment. No painkillers or prescription medication is used to treat or manage pain. Neither are invasive procedures carried out to alleviate the pain.

Your Miami car accident chiropractor may also advise you to follow a strict exercise regimen. These corrective back exercises help strengthen your back muscles. You will also be trained by your chiropractor on how to correct your posture so as to reduce unnecessary pressure on the back.
