Information on Back Pain from Car Accidents from Our Bradenton Chiropractor
At Lakewood Ranch Chiropractic, our auto accident chiropractor team is here to serve Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, and the surrounding areas of Sarasota and Fruitville. If you've recently been involved in an auto accident and are suffering from back pain as a result, we may be able to help using non-invasive and drug-free chiropractic treatments.
How do Auto Accidents Cause Back Pain
There are a number of car accident injury types that could leave you with back pain as a result of your accident. The most common is that of whiplash, which occurs when the body is abruptly thrown forward into a seatbelt during an accident. This results in tearing of the muscles and damage to the tendons around the spine. Back pain and stiffness are the primary symptoms of whiplash; in some cases, the back pain may be serious enough to affect your ability to work or complete everyday tasks.
Herniated discs are another common cause of back pain following an auto accident. When the body comes to a sudden stop, the fluid-filled discs in between the spine may slip out of alignment, which can result in serious back pain.
