Maryland Spine Care and Dr. Patrick Ingram, DC, Reisterstown chiropractic
professional, are pleased to announce the facilities and expertise to
address the needs of an automobile accident victim. The most common
injury linked to an auto accident is whiplash. The stresses upon the
neck and shoulder soft tissues in this type of accident are extreme.
Often,
the victim doesn't believe that there is a serious injury until days or
even weeks later. The pain and other linked symptoms can continue to
grow and worsen, until damage done to the nerves and soft tissues is
irreversible.
Dr. Ingram was interviewed recently and had these comments about whiplash. "Whiplash
needs to be taken very seriously. The sudden movement of the head
forward, backward or to the side causes damage to ligaments, connective
tissue and supporting muscles in the back and neck."
The
consultation with the doctor begins with a thorough examination and
medical history regarding the direct link to an accident, as well as
other conditions and experiences that might be affecting the balance
and health of the spine. Imaging such as x-rays may be required in
order to pinpoint the location and extent of the damage.
The
doctor will prepare a plan to alleviate both the acute and long-term
effects of the injury. The patient must "buy-in" to the plan of care
for maximum effectiveness.
