Common Auto Accident Injuries 

A car accident typically involves sudden acceleration or deceleration, or direct, blunt impact. These high-velocity forces can strain and stress your body, triggering inflammation, pain, and tissue damage. Whiplash is one of the most common types of auto accident injury we see among our patients. This is a syndrome characterized by neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and other symptoms and develops when the head and neck snap like a whip. Other common auto accident injuries we diagnose and treat include disc herniation or bulge, joint dislocations, muscle strains, and concussion. 

But I Felt Fine After My Car Accident—Can a Chiropractor Still Help?

During acute trauma like a car accident, your nervous system will release stress hormones to activate your fight or flight response. These stress hormones, like cortisol, can temporarily mask pain. Many individuals can have underlying tissue damage from a car accident but feel "fine" because their nervous system is on protection mode.

It's only when the nervous system calms back down, and hormone levels return to a baseline that a person might start to notice aches, pain, and other symptoms of injury. Depending on how quickly your body can return to its "normal" day-to-day state, this process could take days or weeks.

The risk, of course, is that you might walk around for several days without even realizing you have underlying tissue damage in a joint, muscle, or other structure. This could allow your auto accident injury to get even worse. This is why we recommend consulting with a chiropractor as soon as you can after your auto accident to ensure your body is functioning well and to initiate a personalized treatment plan if any hidden dysfunction is discovered.
