Med1Care Therapy Partner’s physical therapists specialize in the treatment of motor vehicle accident injuries. We offer a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary approach. We can help you recover from your injuries. Please consider the following:
- “In Lucas County, statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration show that traffic crashes remain a primary public safety issue. Car, truck, bicycle, pedestrian, and motorcycle accidents are all a common occurrence, despite improvements in vehicle safety features, road design, bicycle and pedestrian corridors, and traffic signs.” – Source: Accident Data Center
- Pain from a car accident isn’t always felt right away. It can vary and depends on the intensity of the accident. By getting a physical therapy assessment after a car accident, injuries that commonly go untreated like concussions, whiplash, and soft tissue damage, can be screened for and caught before they become more serious.
Could I have Whiplash?
- Common symptoms: pain/stiffness within the neck and back, numbness/tingling down arms, headaches felt at the base of the skull where the neck and head meet.
- How’d it happen: neck was suddenly jolted, most commonly at impact.
- Why did it happen: because of the sudden movement, soft tissue injuries to muscles/tendons can occur.
Could I have a Concussion?
- Common symptoms: sensitivity to light/sound, difficulty focusing, headaches, dizziness, can’t sleep
- How’d it happen: the brain gets jostled within the skull as the head moves
- Why did it happen: often happens with Whiplash or when the head is it by an object
