Common Auto Accident Injury Complaints
Car accidents can cause a mix of injuries, both emotional and physical. Some injuries are evident with visible damage, while other injuries are not immediately visible. Seeing a doctor or chiropractor can help find, diagnose, and treat those unseen injuries.
Common physical complaints after an auto accident include:
- Bruising and contusion are minor injury complaints and are rarely severe injuries requiring medical attention. Seek medical attention if bruises do not clear up after several weeks or appear to get worse.
- Whiplash occurs when the force of the car accident causes your body to move in a way it was not meant to be moved, and at speeds it should not move at. Whiplash causes pain or discomfort in the neck and back.
- Neck and back injuries come from the intense rapid force the body experiences during an auto accident. Though not always evident, some neck and back injuries can be serious.
- Concussions occur when you hit your head on parts of the car during a collision. A concussion can cause several problems with memory and headaches.
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) can potentially have life-altering effects and change the way your brain functions.
- Broken bones can occur due to the impact of the collision, including arms, legs, and ribs.
- Internal bleeding is common in high-speed auto accidents, and it is essential to be checked out after an accident to receive treatment for possible internal bleeding.
