Even if you do not experience any immediate pain after the car accident, it is important to have an examination performed by a doctor that specializes in whiplash that results from a car accident. A whiplash is a very serious injury that may not have immediate symptoms. It sometimes occurs with a very small impact. When the body is suddenly forced in a sudden flexion and extension state such as it happens during an impact from the rear or the side, the muscles of the neck and back can experience tiny tears in them. These small tears may or may not cause symptoms of neck or back pain immediately. Unfortunately the symptoms may not appear for months or even years and the patient may not even relate their symptoms to the past accident. If left untreated, these micro tears can cause scar tissue in the injured muscles as well as cause degeneration and arthritis in the joints that they control, over time. Best Car Accident Chiropractors will check your spinal vertebrae for misalignments, the range of motion of your neck, back, shoulders and other affected areas to determine if an injury occurred.
