Dr. Edgardo Salas
Have you experienced whiplash? Rear-end collisions are the most common kind of car accident that happens. Although they usually happen due to a combination of sudden braking, poor driving, or even unclear road signs and directions, they can vary wildly in severity. This article discusses how chiropractic care can help.
Quite often, many patients that have been involved in some kind of rear-end collision do not even realize they have suffered injuries until weeks or even months post-impact. Their medical doctors do not always acknowledge injuries that may occur at lower speeds, despite a great deal of research today that says differently. If you believe that you have been injured in an accident, then you need to figure out how serious the injuries may be.
Expert Chiropractic Care
can result in your head whipping back at a much higher rate of speed causing greater injury.
Early Intervention is Key
Whiplash injuries are a serious matter. If an injury of this caliber is left untreated, then the potential long-term impact can be devastating.
To successfully treat a whiplash injury, it is extremely important to work with a chiropractic professional that understands the problem and how to treat it. If you have been injured recently, you will need to get your spine checked as soon as possible. The sooner that you get checked up and take the appropriate steps to care for injuries, the less chance you have of developing long-term problems.
All drivers should take action to reduce the risk of whiplash. Injuries tend to be more significant when your headrest is positioned too low. If you do not adjust it appropriately, it can act as an acceleration point when you are hit from behind. A 5-mph impact Unfortunately, most people that have been injured may not even realize they are injured until long after the accident. By the time many people realize they are in need of help, their problems will need more extensive treatment than if they had started treatment sooner.
