Dr. Tony Blevins of Blevins Chiropractic & Wellness Treats Whiplash Sustained During Auto Injuries in Circleville and Canal Winchester, OH
Auto accidents cause a lot of stress, from dealing with insurance to taking your car to the mechanic to possibly missing work, and throughout all this stress, pain can often take a back seat to everything you have to deal with. However, seeking medical attention should always be a priority after an accident. When your body is jerked forward and then backward suddenly, whiplash can occur, and if left untreated, this injury can become chronic pain or lead to a worse injury down the line. At Blevins Chiropractic & Wellness in Circleville and Canal Winchester, OH, Dr. Tony A. Blevins has extensive experience and skill with treating whiplash and other injuries related to automobile accidents, and he can help return you to a healthy and pain-free state.
Whiplash is a term applied to injuries that occur to the neck when it is whipped in one direction and jolted in another. Although this injury is common during auto accidents, it can also be incredibly damaging. Many whiplash injuries involve sprains—which happen when the ligaments that support, protect and restrict vertebral movement are torn—and strains—which occur when muscles and tendons in the neck are stretched beyond their normal limits. Even the discs between vertebrae in the cervical spine can be torn with whiplash, resulting in disc herniation.
The most common symptoms of whiplash include pain and stiffness in the neck and headaches at the base of the skull, and these symptoms can last for weeks, months or even years if left untreated. Dr. Blevins can accelerate healing and ensure that your injury does not persist by providing quality chiropractic care. With adjustments and soft tissue treatment, the chiropractor can help control your pain and reduce muscle spasms.
