Head Pain, Car Accidents and How Chiropractic Treatment Can Help

We deal with many car crash cases in our Alpharetta office, and a common symptom we see in our patients is headache. If you have headache after an auto collision, don't worry. Dr. Berklich sees this type of condition frequently in our Alpharetta office. Chiropractic care in Alpharetta can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.

How Head Pain Is Caused by Car Crashes and How Dr. Berklich Can Help You

There are many different kinds of headache. Headache that's triggered by a car accident, though, typically begins as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the cervical spine. In a collision, the neck muscles can be damaged, which causes inflammation and discomfort. 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 collision that we see in our Alpharetta office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that originate in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is quite common after a crash, and it's important to get care for this type of problem to avoid the creation of scar tissue.
