AUTO ACCIDENT

What are the most common auto injuries?


Pain from a car accident can be immediate or follow you for many years and have an impact on your quality of life. Even a “minor” crash can result in serious injuries like ligament sprains. This can lead to chronic pain and disability if not treated properly. In fact, research shows that early treatment is the best way to prevent long-term symptoms.



Some of the symptoms seen in auto injury patients include:


  • Whiplash
  • Chronic Pain
  • Muscle and Joint Injuries
  • Headache
  • Broken Bones
  • Jaw Pain
  • Low Back Pain
  • Neck Pain
  • Radicular Pain

Many times, long after you’ve had your car repaired your body still suffers from the long-term, painful effects of your injury. In fact, research shows that serious spinal injuries and accompanying problems are quite common in a car crash. If left untreated, these injuries can have a significant impact on your daily life and emotional well-being.

Whiplash



One of the most common causes of neck pain is whiplash resulting from a car accident. A sudden forced movement of the head or neck in any direction and the resulting “rebound” in the opposite direction is known as whiplash. The sudden “whipping” motion injures the surrounding and supporting tissues of the neck and head. Muscles react by tightening and contracting, creating muscle fatigue, which can result in pain and stiffness. Severe whiplash can also be associated with injury to the intervertebral joints, discs, ligaments, muscles, and nerve roots.



How are Auto Injuries Treated?


The treatment you receive for an auto injury depends largely on the type of trauma you experienced. Anytime you hurt your neck, head, or spine, it can be extremely painful and take time to heal. After seeing the physician at Apollo Spine and Pain Center, the underlying causes of your pain is diagnosed. A customized, comprehensive treatment plan is created to help you get relief from pain, as well as to help correct any damage that was done to your spinal cord, head, neck, or any other related issues.

The team at Apollo Spine and Pain Center specialize in interventional pain procedures and therapeutic techniques to help restore your mobility and increase your comfort.



What are Interventional Pain Procedures


To help manage your pain, your doctor may prescribe any of the following:


  • Spinal cord stimulation
  • Peripheral nerve blocks
  • Epidural injections
  • Facet injections
  • Nerve blocks
  • Radiofrequency ablation


Anesthetic medicine injected around injured joints, nerve, or tendons can offer significant pain relief so you can function normally again.
