Are you suffering from neck pain after that car crash?
Are you suffering from neck pain after that car crash?
Did you know that roughly 77% of car drivers have been in at least one accident? And many of times injuries may go undetected until months to years after that accident. It is not uncommon for one to notice days after the accident that you get sorer and achier. Common symptoms seen clinically after a collision is muscle tightness in the neck and back, frequently noted with decreased mobility, headaches, restless sleep, mentally foggy, and even radiating pain and tingling into the extremities. If you begin to have any of these symptoms it is important to get this corrected as soon as possible and not let further damage occur. 09/17/2022 09:19 AM
