Can an auto accident injury have delayed symptoms?

Common auto collision injuries like whiplash, concussion, and lower back problems are well-known for having delayed symptoms. You could spend hours or days feeling fine and believing you don’t need medical attention before symptoms suddenly strike.

Delayed symptoms can make the problem worse if you stay active despite having an injury like pulled muscles and ligaments, nerve damage, and brain bruising.

That’s why you should be assessed as soon as possible after a car accident — even if you feel fine.

Which auto accident injury treatments are available?

At Pure Health Aurora, you will work with a team of qualified experts who create a personalized treatment plan that is designed to relieve your pain after an auto accident. Our team will conduct a thorough exam and take in-office X-rays (if needed). After your assessment, we may recommend:

Chiropractic care

Our chiropractors offer spinal manipulations, an often-needed treatment to promote healing and relieve the pain suffered in an auto accident. Our providers have extensive training in many techniques for treating every body part.

Massage

Therapeutic massage triggers physical changes necessary for healing. Massage releases your body’s natural painkillers, reduces inflammation, improves joint mobility, stimulates blood flow, and relaxes your muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Physical medicine

As physical medicine specialists, our team provides rehabilitation services that support healing and restore strength, movement, and function.

Injection therapies

Your provider can recommend one of several therapies that activate healing, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, infrared light therapy, and other injection therapies.

Auto accident treatment in our office will cover Four Phases of Care – Relief Care, Corrective Care, Strengthening, and Wellness Care. Throughout these phases of care, our team will aim to reduce pain and inflammation, repair injured tissue, improve your range of motion, and help you return to the activities you love!
