Early Assessment after an Auto Accident Injury

Car accidents are all too common, and the aftermath can be horrible. There are many things to consider after an accident, from dealing with the insurance company to repairing your car. However, one thing often overlooked is seeking early assessment and treatment for injuries sustained. While it may not seem a priority, seeking early chiropractic care and treatment can be beneficial. At Lions Chiropractic & Injury in Winter Park, FL, we provide early assessment and treatment to auto accident injury victims. Here are some reasons why it’s so important to seek treatment immediately.

Reduces Inflammation and Pain

Auto accident injuries often result in whiplash, inflammation, and pain. These injuries are caused by the force of the impact, damaging your muscles, ligaments, and other soft tissue. The sooner you seek treatment, the sooner our chiropractor can ease your inflammation and pain. You may also avoid further health complications that face many auto accident victims.

Recovery Time

Nothing is worse than feeling like you’re stuck in recovery mode. The process can be frustrating, but visiting a chiropractor for early assessment and treatment can help reduce your recovery time. In addition, our chiropractor can help realign your spine and reduce inflammation, both of which can speed up the healing process.

Prevents Future Injuries

In most cases, after an auto accident, you’ll be given a list of exercises and stretches to do at home to promote healing and prevent future injuries. However, if you don’t do these exercises correctly, you could end up causing more damage. An early assessment by a chiropractic care professional can help ensure that you’re doing the exercises correctly and allow modifications if needed.

Stress of an Accident with Whiplash Pain

Car accidents are stressful. When dealing with the aftermath, it can be hard to focus on anything else. Also, it can be challenging if you’re in pain from an injury. Early assessment treatment can help reduce pain and stress levels, making it easier for you to handle everything.
