THREE STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN YOU ARE INVOLVED IN AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT:

  1. Call the police and have proper police report filled out
  2. Call the insurance company/attorney and set up a claim
  3. Contact Medical Rehab Accident Injury Center to have your injuries evaluated and treated

Medical Rehab Accident Injury Center provides comprehensive rehabilitation programs for people injured in a car accident. It all starts with a thorough examination to determine the nature and extent of your injuries. This may or may not include x-rays depending on the nature of your accident. Once the injuries have been fully assessed, treatment begins immediately.

Injuries from an auto accident do not appear immediately. With the type of injuries suffered in these types of accidents, pain might not appear for 12 to 48 hours following the accident.

Some symptoms you might experience from an automobile accident are:

  • headaches
  • neck pain
  • mid-back pain
  • low back pain
  • shoulder pain
  • leg, knee and/or ankle pain
  • sleep disturbance
  • irritability

The most common injury people in car accidents sometimes experience is a strain of the neck muscles and surrounding soft tissue, commonly known as whiplash. This injury often occurs when a vehicle is hit from the rear or the side, causing a sharp and sudden movement of the head and neck. Whiplash may result in tender muscles or limited neck movement.

Do not let your injuries develop into a chronic condition that will be bothersome for the rest of your life. Get the proper treatment now. Call Medical Rehab Accident Injury Center today so we can get you on the road to recovery.
