Auto Accident Injuries

Symptoms after a motor vehicle accident do not always appear right away; in some cases they develop hours or days later. Commonly reported symptoms include neck pain, back pain, headaches, numbness, and tingling. In general, an evaluation soon after an accident helps document symptoms and findings and allows a treatment plan to be discussed. Care is led by a Provider on our team, and the practice accepts No-Fault coverage for motor vehicle accident care.

Documenting the Injury

Clear documentation is useful both for treatment planning and for a No-Fault claim.

EMG & Nerve Conduction Studies — may help assess whether a nerve is involved when there is numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Digital Radiology Review Systems — used to review X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans.
Computerized Range of Motion Testing — used to measure and record range of motion.

Treatment

Depending on the evaluation, a treatment plan may include:

Fluoroscopy-Guided Injections — injections performed with imaging guidance, when injection therapy is considered appropriate.
TENS & Electrical Stimulation Therapy — a modality that may be used to help manage pain.
Therapeutic Ultrasound Therapy — a modality sometimes used as part of soft-tissue care.

Results vary from patient to patient.
