Auto Accident Injuries

Let our sports injury expertise return you to play, even after a car accident

Back Pain


Back injuries are a highly common result of car accidents because of the impact involved in the collision. Spinal joint sprains or muscle strains, disc injuries and even fractures are seen frequently in auto accident injury evaluations. Even if you feel fine immediately following or a few days after the accident, it is highly important that you seek a professional medical evaluation in order to diagnose soft tissue injuries that may not be painful right away.


Neck Pain


Neck pain can be caused by mild injuries such as neck strain or whiplash, but it can also be highly severe depending on the collision. We commonly see auto accident injury patients with disc injuries that require longer term treatment options in order to achieve neck pain relief.


Brain Injuries, Headaches, and Concussion


Closed head injuries sustained by auto accident trauma is also something that is not to be overlooked. We see this commonly in some of the collision sports athletes we treat and subsequent post-concussive syndromes. Car accident victims are unfortunately in the same category. Did you lose consciousness? Have a headache that won’t go away? Some car accident injury patients deal with frequent or recurring headaches, jaw or facial pain, or blurred vision as a result of their accident.


Impact Injuries


We frequently see leg and knee-related auto accident injuries. These tend to be impact injuries caused by the leg or knee colliding with part of the car. From deep bruising and minor sprains to fractures and broken bones, leg and knee injuries sustained from car accidents require careful diagnosis and monitoring to ensure proper healing over time.
