There are numerous accidents that take place in our area daily. While sadly some are fatal, most result in minor hidden injuries.
If you are unsure if you have sustained an injury in a car accident, it is still important to be evaluated by a medical profession to determine if you have. Even a minor accident can result in a hidden injury that can result in serious damage, especially if you are improperly positioned in your vehicle at the time of the accident.
Expectation For Recovery
Most serious accidents result in an ER visit. Bruising and minor injury, of course, do not. Many people think that their minor injuries are going to heal on their own and they essentially ignore them. This is a terrible idea, as most of these minor injuries go undetected and can cause chronic problems.
Even if you feel like you are “fine” after an accident, it is important to follow up with one of our doctors to see if there are other hidden injuries you are not aware of. Many injuries, even minor, can lead to long term complications. Our chiropractors can help you evaluate and treat in a timely manner, eliminating any long-term affects you may sustain.
