Auto Accident Q & A

Should I Seek Treatment After an Auto Accident Even If I Do Not Have Pain?

When you have been in an auto accident the resulting injuries and pain will vary greatly. Furthermore, you may not feel any pain at all initially, and you may think you are perfectly fine. However, the jarring motion of being in a car crash will likely have an adverse effect on you physically. The most common auto injury we see here at the Pacific Medical Group is whiplash, while plenty of patients also suffer from back pain and joint pain following an auto accident. The problem is these injuries may not cause pain for days or weeks after your crash. Unfortunately most auto insurance companies will not cover you if you do not report your pain or injury within a certain time frame. For that reason we highly recommend you go to your primary care provider in Kahului, Hawaii to be treated for your auto injury. Using internal medicine practices we can determine if you have damage that may present itself later on.

Can Chiropractic Services Help with Auto Accident Injuries and Pain?

Yes, chiropractic services offer several benefits for individuals who suffer from auto accident injuries and associated pain. By going to a chiropractor at the Pacific Medical Group you can be treated via a spinal adjustment. This allows your chiropractor to realign your spine and musculoskeletal system, which is likely to be out of place due to the accident. Once your internal system is realigned you are less likely to suffer from bulging discs, sciatic nerve pain, inflamed joints, or swollen vertebrae. If you are already suffering from these types of auto injuries you can benefit from spinal decompression. This method of stretching the spine allows your chiropractor to relieve pressure on the vertebrae, while also returning slipped or herniated discs back into the proper position.

What Pain Treatments for Auto Accident Injuries are Available at the Pacific Medical Group in Kahului, Maui, Hawaii?

Here at the Pacific Medical Group in Kahului, Maui, Hawaii we specialize in pain management and pain therapy for auto accident victims.

We also use intramuscular trigger point injections to treat pain by relaxing the muscles. Individuals who have severe inflammation and swelling in their spine or neck may benefit from facet joint injections, epidural steroid injections, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. If you have severe physical pain due to your auto accident we also provide conservative pain management.
