Head Pain, Car Accidents and How Chiropractic Care Can Help

We work with many car crash cases in our Pinole office, and a standard symptom we see in our patients is headache. Why is headache such a common symptom after an auto collision? How can chiropractic care help you heal? Chiropractic in Pinole can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.

How Headache Is Caused by Auto Accident and How Dr. Jung Can Help You

There are many different kinds of headache. Headache that's caused by a car accident, though, typically starts as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the neck. In a collision, the neck muscles can be torn, which results in swelling and pain. These types of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the forehead.

Another common cause of pain after a crash that we see in our Pinole office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that start in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is very common after a crash, and it's important to get treatment for this type of problem to protect against the creation of scar tissue.
