Common Injuries
There are several injuries and medical conditions that personal injury chiropractic can treat. Some common injuries include:
Whiplash
Whiplash is a term used to descript neck pain, usually following an automobile injury. Although it can happen anytime the soft tissues, ligaments, tendons, and muscles, of your neck are injured. Rear-end collisions are the most common reason for this type of injury. Whiplash is can be associated with the following symptoms:
- pain in neck, arms, back, or shoulders
- dizziness or vertigo
- difficulty focusing or sleeping
- headaches, muscles spasms
- stiff or tender neck
Lower Back Pain
Car accidents, sports injuries, and falls are just some of the causes of chronic lower back pain. Through chiropractic care, our doctors are able to perform spinal manipulation and manual manipulation. This helps to reduce nerve irritability and restore your range of motion in your back. Some symptoms of lower back pain include:
- pain in the back and muscles
- leg pain or numbness
- muscles spasms
- dull ache to a stabbing sensation
- pain when walking
Sciatica Pain
Similar to lower back pain, sciatica pain is frequent with automobile accidents. It is the longest nerve in your body and starts in your lower back.
