Have You Been In A Car Accident?
Chiropractors provide the best care when it comes to acute pain.
There are over one million auto accidents in the United States each year. Of those involved in motor vehicle collisions, 58% report lower back pain and 66% report neck pain. Investigations indicate that those injured in a motor vehicle collision are also at an increased risk for recurrent neck or lower back pain in the future. This makes it extremely important to get proper care as early as possible after an accident.
What to Do if You've Been in a Car Accident:
- Call the police (911) to report your accident.
- Exchange insurance information with anyone else involved in the accident.
- Call your own insurance provider to receive a claim number.
- Seek medical care, then manage further recovery with conservative treatment from a chiropractor, physical therapist, and/or MD/PA.
- Do not make any recorded statements to insurance companies until you speak with an attorney.
You may not feel pain immediately after a motor vehicle collision.
