GETTING CHIROPRACTIC CARE AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT IN PRINCETON, NJ
Could Be the Wisest Investment in The Future of Your Health You Can Make
HAVE YOU BEEN IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT?
Car accidents, as proven by a study from Yale University and multiple other studies, even seemingly mild ones like fender benders, can often cause serious issues such as whiplash, back pain, neck pain, disc injuries, and head injuries. While most people only seek care after an auto accident if they are experiencing extreme pain, it is important to know that many issues may not present themselves for some time after the initial accident. While visiting an ER doctor is good to rule out any life threatening injuries after a car accident, it is vital to schedule an appointment with a chiropractor who is experienced in diagnosing and treating injuries related to soft tissue and vehicle accidents. Dr. Manish has first hand knowledge (read his personal story here) of the damage car accidents can do to the body, and will also be able to provide the proper documentation needed for the insurance companies and attorneys involved in your case and claim.
WHAT TO DO AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT
Car accidents can be extremely scary and overwhelming for everyone involved, however whether you feel pain or not, it is vital that you take certain steps to protect yourself. Immediately report any accident, no matter how small. Refrain from making a premature statement about your health to the authorities or to any other witnesses or drivers. Only give your official statement to your police, and include as many details as you can as these may be important later. If you are injured, make sure you seek immediate care, but even if you feel fine, schedule an appointment with a qualified doctor within 48 hours of the event. Additionally, do not allow the other party’s insurance company to view or have access to your medical records. For legal advice, consult a lawyer who will be able to guide you through the process and set you up for a successful recovery.
Even if you are involved in an accident that seems minor, injuries from car accidents can show up days or even weeks after they take place.

WHAT IS MILD TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY?
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, or MTBI, can be defined by a brief or no loss of consciousness, however the consequences and resulting complications can still be severe. In short, while this term does include the word ‘mild’, it can often be anything but. People that experience whiplash or a concussion after an accident may be sent home from the hospital with a clean bill of health, or may never enter the health system at all. However, many people later experience debilitating issues that lead them to seek additional care after the fact. In addition to dealing with the physical ramifications of MTBI, there can also be other symptoms that may present themselves well after the initial injury, such as cognitive and emotional effects. After an auto accident, make sure to schedule regular check-ins with an experienced doctor and disclose any and all symptoms you may be experiencing, even if they seem unrelated to the accident.
LASTING IMPACT OF AN AUTO ACCIDENT
Investing in Your Health with Preventative Chiropractic Care
Whether you feel immediate pain after an auto accident or not, there are certain warning signs to be aware of in the coming days and weeks that may indicate you need professional care, such as headaches, vision issues, cognitive or emotional problems, and back/neck pain. Making an appointment with a chiropractor who is experienced dealing with the after effects of car accidents may also help you become aware of injuries that you may have not realized you had. Even a slight bump, fall, or fender bender can result in headaches, upper or lower back pain, whiplash, and numbness in your extremities. In addition, car accidents can also cause disc or spinal injuries that may prevent your nervous system from functioning properly. Even if you feel fine, make an appointment with an experienced chiropractor who can help you assess your injuries and get you on the road to recovery after your accident.
