About This Condition

Understanding Concussion Treatment After Car Accident

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) caused by a blow or violent shaking of the head. In car accidents, concussions can occur even without direct head impact — the sudden acceleration-deceleration forces of a collision can cause the brain to move within the skull. Concussions are frequently underdiagnosed after accidents because symptoms may be subtle or delayed. Chiropractic evaluation plays a crucial role in identifying cervicogenic symptoms that overlap with concussion and ensuring comprehensive treatment and documentation.
