If you’ve been in a car accident, you may be at risk for whiplash. This injury occurs when the neck and head are rapidly and forcefully jerked back and forth, causing strain and damage to the muscles, ligaments, and other soft tissues in the neck. Whiplash can be a painful and debilitating condition, but with the right treatment, you can recover and regain your quality of life. At Advanced Medical Treatment Center, we specialize in treating car accident injuries, including whiplash. Our experienced doctors and staff are here to help you understand this injury and provide you with the best possible care.
Whiplash can cause a wide range of symptoms, including neck pain, stiffness, and soreness. Other common symptoms include headaches, dizziness, and blurred vision. In some cases, whiplash can also cause numbness or tingling in the arms and hands. If you’ve been in a car accident and are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical attention right away. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent the injury from worsening and improve your chances of a full recovery. At Advanced Medical Treatment Center, we use a variety of treatments to help our patients recover from whiplash. These may include chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, massage therapy, and other forms of non-invasive care. Chiropractic adjustments can help realign the spine and reduce tension in the muscles and ligaments, while physical therapy can help improve range of motion and reduce pain. Massage therapy can also be effective in relieving muscle tension and promoting relaxation. In addition to these treatments, our doctors may recommend medications to help manage pain and inflammation, as well as home exercises and stretches to help improve your mobility and speed up your recovery.
