Personal Injury Chiropractor

One of the more common types of chiropractic injury is a personal injury. A slip and fall accident are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to chiropractic injuries. In fact, people can cause substantial damage to the spine and neck just by sitting at a desk five days a week in unhealthy work conditions. Other people will experience soreness and pain following a car accident.

Chiropractic Treatment for a Personal Injury

Many chiropractic injuries will not display any symptoms or pain until several days or weeks after the accident. While a general physician or hospital can treat open wounds or other conditions, they are not able to provide the chiropractic treatment patients need. As a chiropractor in Carrollton, TX, we can help patients find long-lasting relief from personal injuries.

If you sustain a personal injury from a fall or accident, then call us for chiropractic treatment as soon as possible.

While minor chiropractic injuries can heal over time with some rest, many conditions will benefit from professional treatment. There can be no signs of injury on the surface, but there can be a serious health issue brewing beneath the skin. Along with that, people may find immense pain that does not go away in a specific area, but no surface damage.

As a personal injury chiropractor, we can:

• Conduct a professional examination

• Determine the source of the patient’s pain

• Customize the treatment plan to patient’s needs

• Provide regular appointments to promote recovery

• Teach patient about exercises and stretches to help promote recovery

• Provide follow-up care when necessary

We understand that many chiropractic issues cause pain that seems to not always have a direct source. To some people, the pain seems to come out of nowhere, being several days or weeks after a personal injury. With this in mind, seeking professional treatment right after an accident can help to prevent the worst of the pain.

With our customized treatment, we will find the specific needs of the patient by conducting an examination. We will also gather information on the patient’s medical history, current condition, allergies, insurance and information on any recent injuries. With this information, we can work to determine the source of the pain.

Symptoms of Personal Injuries

Slip and fall accidents are a common form of personal injury cases that can occur from accidents at home or in public. Patients who are in their 60s need to seek chiropractic treatments following a fall, no matter the type of the pain. While people may argue they are fine, they will benefit from an examination.

Symptoms of a personal injury that people need to watch out for, include:

• Stiff neck

• Sore back

• Pain in the shoulders

• Pain that radiates from the lower back to the hips

• Neck pain that hinders movement

• Headaches

• Nausea/li>

The spine connects the entire body together and is known as the super highway of the body. Thus, any damage to the spine can spread to other areas of the body as well. Some people who have pain in their neck can also experience nausea and headaches. People who sustain a personal injury need to keep an eye out for any symptoms or signs that something is wrong. If they notice anything unusual, we can help to determine the extent of the damage and recommend treatment.
