Common Auto Injury Symptoms
After being in a car accident, it’s crucial to visit one of our chiropractors for an evaluation. Our chiropractors can uncover hidden injuries, diagnose your symptoms, and provide ongoing auto injury treatment. If you plan on filing a personal injury claim, our chiropractors can provide medical records and documentation of your treatment plan. If you have any of these common auto injury symptoms, visit one of our chiropractors in Beverly Hills, CA for treatment.
Delayed Symptoms & Pain
The adrenaline released in your body after an auto accident can hide symptoms of injury. If you visit our chiropractors right away, they will do diagnostic imaging and testing to uncover hidden injuries. Getting early warning of injuries means that you won’t risk further injury, and you’re less likely to suffer from chronic or recurring pain. You’ll also get back on your feet much sooner. After a car accident, watch for delayed symptoms that might take 24 to 48 hours to develop. Watch for neck stiffness, headaches, dizziness, confusion, swelling and inflammation, depression, anxiety, and insomnia.
Soft Tissue Injuries
Soft tissue injuries are very common in both minor and major car accidents. You might experience tenderness, bruising, swelling, inflammation, and cuts and abrasions. Soft tissue injuries might be masking signs of a deeper, more serious problem under the surface. Let our chiropractors administer an x-ray to check for more serious injuries.
Loss of Range of Motion & Inflammation
You might get a fracture, sprain, or strain during an auto accident, especially if your airbag deploys. Symptoms can include swelling, tenderness, inflammation, and loss of range of motion in a limb or joint. If you’re rear-ended, side-swiped, or t-boned, you might develop symptoms of whiplash. Symptoms of whiplash include neck pain, stiffness, and tenderness as well as shoulder pain, numbness or tingling, jaw pain, and headaches.
Back Pain
Being jerked around in a car accident or having your airbag go off in your face can cause upper or lower back pain. Back pain after a car accident might indicate that you have pulled or strained a muscle, have developed a herniated disc, have a spinal misalignment, or have a hairline fracture.
