Automobile Accident Injuries
Automobile accidents of all types have the power to harm passengers and bystanders as well significantly. Injuries stemming from automobile accidents can range from bruised body parts to severe personal damages. Fortunately, our car accident injury doctors have the expertise to treat a wide variety of common auto accident injuries, including:
Whiplash: Whiplash is a neck injury that's extremely common among those who have experienced a car wreck. Whiplash results from the sudden jerking of the head forward and backward--which often occurs during rear-end collisions, causing neck pain and stiffness.
Fractures: Broken bones, often in the arms, legs, or ribs, can occur in automobile accidents, sometimes leading to multiple fractures or more severe injuries.
Concussion and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Even without visible head trauma, accidents can cause concussions or more serious brain injuries, manifesting as symptoms from confusion to long-term cognitive issues.
Back Injuries: Severe accidents may damage the spinal cord, leading to partial or complete paralysis, dependent on the injury's location and extent.
Soft Tissue Injuries: Muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries, such as strains, sprains, and tears, can result in pain and reduced mobility.
