“They explained to me everything about my accident and what they were going to do – point by point what was going on with my body, and said they would do everything they can for me to feel back to normal.”
So, you’ve been involved in a minor car accident, and you are feeling fine. Should you visit a chiropractor following your accident? Yes, you should always visit a chiropractor for an evaluation after a car accident, no matter how minor it seems. Getting an evaluation is important for your health and strength now and into the future because serious injuries can result even in minor accidents.
In addition, if the accident was caused by a careless driver, you may need a medical professional’s diagnosis and documentation to ensure your injuries and treatment are covered.
Whenever you are involved in a car accident, even a minor one, injuries are common. Obviously, the more serious the accident the more serious the injuries, but every accident has the potential to cause damage to your body. Different types of accidents, along with the speed at which the vehicles were traveling, and if the passengers were wearing their seatbelts, affect the severity of the damage and injuries in an accident.
Even in the “best case” scenario in which you were traveling at low speeds, wearing your seatbelt, and were in a minor crash, you could still be injured. Whiplash is among the most common injuries for those in vehicle accidents because even minor rear-end crashes can adversely impact the neck. Other common injuries include:
Following a minor accident, in which you walk away feeling okay, you may not feel the need to seek a medical evaluation, but you should! Often injuries in a vehicle accident aren’t visible or immediately apparent. For lacerations and fractures, you should head to the emergency room, but for nerve damage injuries, whiplash, and other musculoskeletal issues, the chiropractor is the right choice.
Chiropractors specialize in these types of injuries, and reducing the pain associated with them. Chiropractors seek out the source of your pain and discomfort, treating it by re-adjusting the body naturally without the use of addictive pain medications. The natural treatments provided by a chiropractor include, manual and instrument-aided adjustments as well as other therapies like massage, physical therapy, and more.
Following your evaluation and diagnosis, a chiropractor will work with you to develop a personalized treatment regimen that works to restore you to full health and wellness. For your part, seeing the chiropractor as soon as possible following your accident is crucial to your recovery. Don’t hesitate to make an appointment for an evaluation because injuries, and the pain that comes with them, which are the result of car accidents can take a few days or even weeks to present.
