We treat many car crash cases in our Mt Sterling office, and a widespread symptom we see in our patients is headache. The key to recovering from headache caused by a crash is to understand the root cause of the problem and how chiropractic care can help. Chiropractic in Mt Sterling can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.
There are many different types of headache. Headache that's triggered by an auto collision, though, usually starts as tension or strain in the muscles of the neck. In a wreck, the neck muscles can be torn, which results in swelling and discomfort. These types of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the temple.
Another common cause of pain after a crash that we see in our Mt Sterling office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that start in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is quite common after a crash, and it's important to get therapy for this type of problem to prevent the creation of scar tissue.
Chiropractic Treatment is an effective way to treat headaches, including those brought about by car crashes. Your chiropractic doctor will help reduce the swelling and tension in your neck, which will help alleviate the headache pain.
