If you’ve been involved in an automobile accident, you’re probably already experiencing a lot of pain, stress, and trauma. One of the most common injuries stemming from automobile accidents is whiplash, which occurs when the head and neck snap back and forth very quickly. The result is injury to the ligaments, soft tissues, neck, and lower back pain.
Automobile accidents can also result in a host of other debilitating conditions. Over the years, Fugate Family Chiropractic has treated auto accident patients suffering from neck and back pain, muscle soreness, and stiffness, as well as numbness and tingling in the arms or legs.
Unfortunately, most people who have experienced a traumatic automobile accident do not receive chiropractic care. As a result, many auto accident patients leave the hospital with as much pain and discomfort as they had when they entered. They never fully recover, and often spend months or years living on painkillers or enduring repeated surgeries.
Even if your automobile accident appears minor in scope, it can have a major effect on your health. In fact, the amount of damage to your automobile bears little relation to the force applied to your spine. Some auto accident injuries are hidden and seldom detected for weeks, months, or even years. When the painful effects eventually surface, they can be overwhelming and make you feel as if your automobile accident happened the very same day. So whether you’ve been involved in a fender-bender or a major accident, don’t take chances with your health and well-being. Contact us today to discover why Fugate Family Chiropractic can make the difference between true recovery and healing, or chronic pain and disability. You’ll be glad you did.
