When you’re clients are in a car accident, the forces from the crash cause their body to experience more stress than usual. This additional stress can result in a number of soft tissue injuries, such as sprains, strains, contusions, disc injuries, tears and fractures. The symptoms of these injuries are sometimes obvious right after an accident. Other times, they may take a while to appear.
Regardless if your clients feel immediate or delayed pain, it’s important to see a pain management doctor after a car accident as soon as possible. Seeing a pain management doctor will help prevent further injury and allow your clients to quickly begin treatment.
