After a car wreck, you’ll be left with several things to attend to. The most important of these will be your health. If you sustained any injuries in the accident, you need to be seen by a chiropractor.
Following are five of the most important questions to ask your chiropractor after a car wreck.
1. How Is Car Wreck Injury Evaluation Performed?
You’ll want to have a chiropractor perform an auto accident evaluation in the days following your accident. These evaluations are used to assess any injuries and the extent of those injuries.
Before scheduling your evaluation, you should ask your chiropractor what will be included in the appointment and how it will determine your course of treatment.
2. What Treatments Do You Offer for Car Wreck Injuries?
The treatments offered at each chiropractic clinic can vary greatly. Before your auto accident evaluation, make sure that your chiropractor offers treatments developed specifically for car accident injuries. These treatments often include various types of neck, back, and spinal treatments.
3. How Severe Is My Injury?
After your auto accident evaluation, ask your chiropractor how severe your injuries are. Car accident injuries vary greatly, from very mild to severe. The extent of your injuries will determine which treatments you will receive and how often you will need chiropractic services.
4. What Will My Course of Treatment Look Like?
When your chiropractor has determined the extent of your injuries, they will put together your unique treatment plan. Every patient’s course of treatment will vary depending on their needs. You should ask your chiropractor which treatments you will receive and how often you will need them.
5. Do You Work with Other Providers If I Need Specialized Care?
In certain cases, your injuries may need more extensive treatment from outside specialists. Ask your chiropractor how they handle these cases and if they work alongside other providers to offer you the best treatment plan possible.
