When should I seek auto injury treatment?

You should seek auto injury treatment as soon as possible. Though the severity of auto accident injuries varies, it’s not uncommon for people to walk away from a rear-end collision without any outward injuries and then experience pain, stiffness, and immobility a few hours or a couple days later.

The most common areas of the body affected by auto accidents include the head, neck, and back. However, your auto accident may also lead to injuries that affect your internal organs, arms, or legs.

Auto injury symptoms that benefit from a consultation at Seattle Chiropractic Spine & Injury Center include:

• Neck pain
  
• Headaches
  
• Numbness
  
• Leg tingling
  
• Back pain
  
• Dizziness
  
• Leg and arm weakness
  
• Sleeping difficulties
  
• Fatigue
  
• Nausea
  
• Confusion
  
• Jaw pain
  
• Sciatica
