Motor Vehicle Accidents Q&A

Which injuries are common in motor vehicle accidents?

Motor vehicle accidents, even minor ones, can cause various musculoskeletal injuries that range in severity. Some of the most common issues that result from a motor vehicle accident include:

Whiplash
Concussion
Herniated discs
Joint dislocation
Bone contusions
Muscle sprains and tears
Ligament strains and ruptures

Often, acute injuries heal with rest, lifestyle modifications, and medical intervention. However, some injuries can increase risk factors for chronic pain and other complications. For instance, a joint or spine injury can progress to a degenerative condition, such as osteoarthritis.

Sports Chiro & Rehab offers comprehensive care for adults and children who experience persistent pain after a motor vehicle accident. The skilled chiropractic team offers innovative treatments like laser therapy to heal the source of pain.

When should I seek treatment for an injury related to motor vehicle accidents?

Ideally, you should schedule a medical evaluation for yourself or your child following a motor vehicle accident. Some musculoskeletal injuries may not be noticeable right away because a rush of adrenaline masks pain.
