Common Injuries sustained from Auto Accidents

  • Whiplash: Neck injury caused by the sudden jerking motion of the head, often from rear-end collisions, leading to pain and stiffness. 
  • Fractures: Broken bones resulting from the impact of the collision, which may affect limbs, ribs, or the spine, requiring immobilization and treatment. 
  • Concussions: Brain injury caused by a sudden impact or jolt, leading to headaches, dizziness, and cognitive disturbances. 
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Damage to muscles, ligaments, or tendons, such as sprains and strains, resulting from the force of the crash. 
  • Dislocations: Joints forced out of their normal position during the collision.
  • Herniated Discs: Displacement of spinal discs due to the impact, leading to back pain and nerve issues.

How to relieve auto accident injuries

  • Whiplash & Neck Injuries: Whiplash and neck injuries are common in car accidents due to the sudden jolt from the impact. Depending on our clinical findings and diagnosis, treatment is designed to offer a rapid reduction of pain and discomfort, and safe return to proper function. 
  • Back Injuries: Back injuries, including herniated discs and muscle strains, can result from the force of a collision. Our specialized programs focus on pain relief, spinal alignment, and strengthening exercises to enhance stability and prevent chronic issues.
  • Fractures: Fractures and broken bones require careful treatment to ensure proper healing. Patients who have sustained this injury would typically be diagnosed by an x-ray and referred to PT. Depending on the severity of the injury, patients can be treated by a PT to avoid surgical intervention. If surgery is necessary, then our team will work closely with the surgeons to ensure a speedy recovery.
  • Head Injuries & Concussions: Head injuries, including concussions, need immediate and careful attention. Our team offers thorough evaluations, personalized care plans, and guidance on safe activities to protect long-term brain health and ensure a safe recovery.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Soft tissue injuries, such as sprains and strains, are common in auto accidents. We provide targeted therapies and rehabilitation to reduce pain, restore function, and promote healing; helping you return to your daily activities without limitations.
