Whiplash/Car Accident Injury Pain Chiropractor In Roseville, Minnesota

Whiplash is a common injury that occurs after a motor vehicle accident, sports injury, or other traumatic cause.  Whiplash causes a common soft tissue injury to the neck and back which is also commonly referred to a neck sprain or strain.  There are many tissues that are injured as a result of whiplash.  Those tissues would include muscles (strains), ligaments and joint capsules (sprains), and injuries to the discs.  The discs are the shock absorbing structures located between each vertebrae throughout your spine.  These structures are a common source of back and neck pain. Lastly, the brain can also be injured as a result of whiplash which is known as a concussion.  The concussion may result from directly hitting your head but concussions can also occur without any injury or blow to the head.

There are many symptoms that occur as a result of whiplash:

• Neck Pain
• Headaches
• Back Pain
• Numbness & Tingling
• Dizziness

The symptoms result from injuries to the above mentioned tissues: muscles, ligaments, joint capsules, and discs.  Therefore, seeking treatment from a whiplash/car accident injury pain chiropractor in Roseville, Minnesota is helpful because spinal manipulation positively affects the muscles, ligaments, joint capsules, and discs.  Chiropractic adjustments help improve your pain by reducing inflammation.  This type of treatment will help you feel better faster.  There are several treatment goals which include returning you to your normal daily function as well as improving your symptoms.

One of the most important keys for effective treatment of whiplash pain is actually something you may not think of, MOVEMENT.  Or, I should say controlled movement.  You actually want to stay active and keep moving through what are comfortable movements and ranges of motion.  A lack of movement will actually make the pain cycle worse.
