When Should I See a Specialist After a Car Accident?
Not every car accident injury can or should be managed with chiropractic care alone.
If you’re experiencing persistent numbness or tingling, weakness in an arm or leg, radiating pain, significant headaches, dizziness, balance problems, or other neurological symptoms after a car accident, additional evaluation by a medical specialist may be appropriate.
Depending on your symptoms, examination findings, and diagnostic imaging, that could include referral to a neurologist, orthopedic specialist, pain management physician, or another appropriate healthcare provider.
I’m Tyler Hamel, DC, FPSC (C), with Kingwood Chiropractic Spine and Injury Center. With more than 26 years of chiropractic experience, my goal is not simply to treat your symptoms, it’s to properly evaluate your injuries and help get you to the right provider when additional care is needed.
