Effective Whiplash Treatment in Belmont & Medowie with Dr. Adam Wild
Whiplash is a common neck injury that can occur in an instant, yet its effects may linger for years if not treated promptly. The term “whiplash” aptly describes the rapid motion that whips the head in one direction and then back in the opposite direction, straining muscles, tendons, ligaments, and discs. This can lead to subluxations, pinched nerves, and significant pain. At BodyFix Chiropractic, Dr. Adam Wild is dedicated to helping those who have experienced whiplash through comprehensive evaluation and treatment.
Understanding Whiplash Symptoms
While whiplash is most commonly associated with car accidents, it can also occur from sports injuries or other traumatic events. The pain and discomfort may not appear immediately, making it crucial to seek evaluation as soon as possible. Watch for the following symptoms:
Neck Pain and Stiffness
Persistent discomfort that can limit mobility.
Headaches
Tension or migraines that may follow the incident.
Upper Back Pain
Pain between the shoulder blades that can radiate.
Arm or Hand Pain
Numbness or tingling sensations similar to carpal tunnel syndrome.
Dizziness or Light-headedness
Feelings of unsteadiness.
Difficulty Concentrating
Cognitive challenges following the injury.
Hearing or Vision Disturbances
Unusual sensations in your senses.
Face and Jaw Pain
Issues that may resemble TMJ dysfunction.
Difficulty Swallowing
Problems with swallowing or throat discomfort.
Because whiplash affects critical areas of the spine, effective recovery requires a multifaceted approach that addresses soft-tissue injuries and vertebral misalignments. Painkillers alone are often insufficient.
