How To Avoid Chronic, Ongoing Pain After a Texarkana Automobile Crash
About 2.35 million people are injured every year in US motor vehicle collisions.
Some of these injuries are minor and may not need much or any treatment.
Unfortunately for many, that’s not the case.
Some whiplash and other injuries lead to ongoing, chronic pain and disability.
We see so many of these patients in our Texarkana clinic.
People that have been suffering since having been injured in an accident long ago.
Chronic pain and chronic whiplash injuries are more difficult to treat.
Fortunately there is a very good treatment alternative for people that are suffering from ongoing problems.
More on that in a moment.
Recent injuries do respond better so it makes sense to get treatment right away if you’ve been in a recent collision.
This is commonly what we do at Hagebusch Chiropractic in Texarkana.
We’re here to help you heal up and get back to normal activities as soon as possible after your auto injuries.
Let’s talk about chronic whiplash pain though…
An interesting study in the Journal Injury by a couple of orthopedic surgeons and a chiropractor looked at how people suffering with chronic pain from a whiplash injury did with chiropractic treatment.
Here’s what they found…
- 93% of chronic whiplash sufferers improved with chiropractic adjustments.
- Even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall continue experiencing ongoing problems!
This small study confirms what we see so often in our clinic…
Chiropractic helps even the toughest whiplash injuries.
It’s important to say, studies have found putting off treatment after a car crash can be a problem resulting in poorer, longer recovery.
