Understanding Soft Tissue Injury Treatment

Soft tissue injuries — damage to muscles, ligaments, and tendons — are the most common type of injury sustained in car accidents, yet they are often undervalued because they don't appear on standard X-rays. Proper documentation of soft tissue injuries through detailed clinical examination, functional assessment, and sometimes advanced imaging is essential for establishing the full extent of injuries in a personal injury claim.

Swelling and bruising
Muscle stiffness

Why Chiropractic Documentation Matters for Your Las Cruces Case

Proper medical documentation is the backbone of any personal injury claim. Here's why the right chiropractor makes all the difference:

1Provides a foundation for any impairment rating that may increase your compensation
2Creates evidence that can withstand cross-examination if your case goes to deposition or trial
3Establishes a direct link between the accident and your injuries — without this, insurance companies will argue your injuries were pre-existing
4Creates a timeline of treatment that demonstrates the severity and duration of your condition
5Provides objective measurements (range of motion, muscle strength, neurological findings) that support subjective pain complaints

New Mexico Law & Your Soft Tissue Claim

New Mexico is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who caused the accident (or their insurance company) is responsible for paying your medical expenses and other damages. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in New Mexico is 3 years. After this deadline, you lose the right to file a lawsuit for your injuries. New Mexico uses a pure comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage is available in New Mexico and can help cover chiropractic treatment costs regardless of fault determination.

Soft Tissue FAQ — Las Cruces, NM

Soft tissues have limited blood supply compared to bones, which means they receive fewer nutrients and healing factors. Additionally, we use these tissues constantly for daily activities, which can impede healing. Proper treatment accelerates recovery by improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, and preventing scar tissue formation.

Yes. Both PIP/no-fault insurance and liability claims cover soft tissue injury treatment. However, insurance companies often try to minimize soft tissue claims. Thorough chiropractic documentation is your best defense against claim reduction or denial.
