Injuries sustained from a car accident can be very difficult to manage. Symptoms can be latent for a while and then manifest with a vengeance... or they can come and go. In addition to the physical symptoms like headaches, neck pain, back pain, bruising etc., car accident victims can experience debilitating bouts of fatigue, exhaustion, emotional stress, insomnia and symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury.

    I think I am going to need to visit with a physician. I am having terrible issues w/ my lower back.

    Everyone should see a chiropractor on a regular basis and especially if you have been in a car accident. A lot of times people “feel fine” and really aren’t. I really think getting your spine checked prevents chronic pain later.

    wow! I am sorry you experienced that but I think your right. It must make you have a better understanding and be a better Dr.

    All things happen for a reason. The bigger the problem the more profound the lesson, usually.

    In a whiplash accident the neck goes through some pretty violent motions. And you are right, I have seen people who ‘feel fine’ afterward and then a few days or weeks later can hardly move… weird, but I’ve seen it dozens of times. After a car accident injury I just think it’s wise to get checked.

    After the ambulance and ruling out any fractures or dislocations the best thing to do is find a chiropractor who is very familiar in treating car accident injuries. I really like using laser therapy right after the accident because it is non-invasive and it can provide significant pain relief and healing. Sometimes people don’t even want to be touched, let alone have an adjustment, and who can blame them. But with the laser therapy, you can begin the healing process right away.

    Hello Doc, I have typed in car accidents and have gotten to your site before. I do alot of PI and personally I like it the most, I think we all do.
    Would you like to cross link our sites. If someone needed a chiropractor in Denver I would gladly send them to you, based on your reputation.
