Auto Accident / Personal Injury

Conditions Treated at First Hope Medical Clinic, Inc. / OC Injury Doctors.

Auto accidents happen so suddenly yet the pain and discomfort from an injury may last for years. Our health team provides a complete examination of your injuries so we develop the most effective recovery approach. Our orthopedic surgeon evaluates joint pain in addition to nerve and muscle damage. Our chiropractors examine your neck, back and joints to determine the best care for pain relief. We also use acupuncture to enhance the body's ability to heal and recover. Plus, our team teaches you exercises to support your auto accident injury recovery and re-stabilize your body. Some of the conditions we care for include:

• whiplash that occurs when your head is quickly forced forward and backward. The muscles, tendons and vertebrae may be strained or pushed out of alignment. You experience headaches, dizziness, eye focusing concerns and irritability.

• concussions that result when your head slams into the steering wheel or window. The swelling in your head and brain may press on areas creating headaches, difficulty concentrating and blurred vision.

• back pain can occur depending on the direction of impact. If the trauma is severe, your disc may herniate or leak out of the space between the vertebrae. This creates pain and limited range of motion.

• neck pain from whiplash or jostling from impact. The muscles across your upper back may stretch to accommodate the force, which can result in pain.

• shoulder pain from impact or seatbelt.

• chest pain from the seatbelt or contact with the steering wheel.
