Dr. Madrid states that although most people don’t realize it a minor automobile accident or car accident can have major effects on your health! When one vehicle crash into each other, the impact typically involves both the neck and spine. Whiplash is the most common trauma and injury when the head and neck are violently thrown backward and forward in a whiplash like manner. Dr. Madrid also wants all Phoenix car accident victims to know that even if you don’t feel pain immediately, symptoms may not be noticed up to two weeks after the accident.

Whiplash causes injuries to the ligaments, connective tissues, and discs of the neck and spine. Whiplash typically causes neck and upper back pain and traumatic nerve pain, shoulder and irritation to the spinal cord. Whiplash can cause headaches, numbness, and “pins and needles” in the face, chest pain from seat belt trauma, tingling into the arms or hands. Amazingly the trauma of a motor vehicle accident can cause anxiety, neck pain, back pain, ringing in the ears, dizziness, hearing loss and even blurred vision. Whiplash is painful and requires emergency care. With Dr. Madrid’s credentials, he can refer and interpret spine MRI, assess for hidden injuries such as costosternal fractures or mild traumatic brain injury. Chiropractic care should be at forefront of every spinal injury due to a car accident.
