Why Should I See a Chiropractor After an Auto Accident?

You’ve been in a car accident — maybe you’re feeling a little sore, or maybe you’re feeling no discomfort at all. Either way, you could be injured to a deeper extent than you currently realize. Car accident injuries can be very sneaky and appear later on in life. This is the case with internal injuries, herniated discs, nerve damage, restricted motion in your neck or back, and other types of injury.

When thousands of pounds of force are exerted onto the spine during an auto accident, the damage can run deep. The surrounding soft tissue, joints, ligaments, and discs can be torn and misaligned. Sometimes symptoms don’t present themselves for months. But a trusted chiropractor will be able to spot issues from the beginning.

Safe Treatment Options

Chiropractic care presents lower-risk treatment options compared to invasive surgery or controlled substances. Sometimes surgery and medication are absolutely necessary, and serious car accident victims are thankful to have them. But in many cases, they can be averted with timely and consistent care from an experienced chiropractor.

For example: delaying treatment for whiplash can result in serious upper cervical issues later on in life. At that point, the neck pain and restricted range of motion may require surgery or pain medication. But those complications could have been avoided with a plan for recovery from a specialist such as a chiropractor

Chiropractic Heals Issues at Their Source

Rather than treating symptoms, auto accident chiropractors aim straight for the source. While medication treats pain, chiropractic treats its cause. And while surgery can be effective, it carries its own risks, and may not be effective for a significant percentage of cases.
Inflammation

Inflammation

If your neck and back are shifted out of alignment by an auto accident, tissue becomes inflamed. Your recovery time will be elongated when blood flow is prevented from healing the affected area. Chiropractic care will realign the spine and will help restore blood flow, leading to complete recovery.

Scar Tissue

Scar Tissue

Without an adjustment, scar tissue may also form around the injured areas. Scar tissue around your spine, especially in your neck, may have you feeling stiff by restricting your natural range of motion. A chiropractor specializing in auto accident care can reverse the effects of internal scar tissue by realigning the affected area.
