Common Car Accident Injuries in Morganton NC

There are a few different injuries you're likely to suffer as a result of a car accident. Perhaps the most common injury after an auto accident is whiplash, which is a neck injury that results from the force and speed with which your neck moves back and forth during an accident. At the very least, you're going to be dealing with some scrapes, cuts, and bruises, and there's a decent chance you'll end up with a fractured or broken bone somewhere in your body.

As soon as you're involved in a car accident, you should visit a hospital. Even if you don't think anything is wrong, there could be underlying issues that pose a serious risk. This should be followed by a visit to a chiropractor to restore your body’s alignment and prevent injuries from going untreated.

Chiropractic Auto Treatment

Chiropractic care is a natural solution to pain in the neck, back, shoulders, knees, and more. Many of our patients prefer chiropractic care for auto accident injury treatment because it is natural and non-invasive. While prescription medication can effectively mask your pain, it does nothing to address the root cause of your pain. Surgery will be necessary in some rare cases, but most of the time it is best avoided. Over time, chiropractic adjustments will relieve your pain, improve your range of motion, and enhance your body’s natural healing process.
