Have you suffered a car accident injury? If you have lingering back pain, neck pain, headaches and migraines, or other pain and discomfort, let our chiropractor treat you. At Insight Chiropractic in San Jose, Dr. Jennifer Forster can help with pain management, as well as rehabilitation.3 Common Injuries Sustained in Car Accidents
1- Whiplash is one of the most frequent injuries, typically resulting in neck pain, which also triggers or exacerbates headaches and migraines. This injury occurs because of the accident's impact, causing a person's head to jerk violently forward, and then backward. The result is typically misaligned vertebrae, and strained or torn neck and upper back muscles and ligaments.
3-Back injuries, including spinal cord damage, are also among the top injuries. These may include pinched nerves, herniation, bulged discs, and fractures, all of which cause back pain.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
One of the first treatments for your injury is a spinal adjustment to realign vertebrae. Dr. Forster follows up with massage therapy to ease soreness and tension in muscles and ligaments. After this, corrective exercises will help you with pain management and rehabilitation.
