It is common to experience soreness, aches & pains following a minor accident. And, most of us will downplay the symptoms. But when is the soreness normal & when does it cross the line to being something more? Age, health & type of injury all play a role in the symptoms we experience. Interesting fact; there is no speed or damage threshold for the onset of bodily injury in a motor vehicle accident. Stated another way, there is no minimum speed or damage to a vehicle that a person will not suffer injury.

It’s concerning when soreness persists or gets worse with time, so take your pain seriously. Any time you experience pain, it’s a sign that something’s wrong. Even if you’ve already been evaluated or your soreness is lasting longer than your doctor said it would, then you should be re-evaluated.

At Swank Chiropractic Sports Medicine & Wellness Center, Cary NC, we actively address the functional injuries that result from auto accidents. We uncover the reason accident victims are still in pain weeks after the collision.

If you are involved in a car accident, no matter whether it is major or minor; it is important to receive a thorough & comprehensive evaluation. We know what to look for & how to put you on the path to complete recovery.
