Car Accident Chiropractor in Greenville, SC
After an auto accident, pain often doesn't show up for a day, and "I feel fine" isn't the same as "I'm not injured." Combs Chiropractic & Wellness examines, documents and treats neck and back injuries from accidents on Greenville's roads, including whiplash.
What injuries do car accidents cause?
Whiplash and neck sprain or strain
Mid- and low-back injuries
Headaches that start after the accident
Shoulder and arm pain, numbness or tingling
Disc injuries
Why get checked soon after an accident
Whiplash happens in a fraction of a second, even in low-speed collisions. Getting examined promptly helps catch injuries early, gives you a clear record of what was found and when, and gets treatment started before stiffness sets in.
What your visit includes
A detailed history of the accident and your symptoms, a full orthopedic and neurological exam, and X-rays. We document our findings carefully. Fill out our auto injury intake form before your visit to save time.
How we treat accident injuries
Gentle adjustments, traction and progressive rehab exercises to restore motion and strength, adjusted as you heal.
When to go to the ER first
Go to the emergency room after an accident if you have severe pain, a head injury, loss of consciousness, numbness or weakness, trouble breathing, or any suspected broken bone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who pays for my care after an accident?
In South Carolina, coverage often comes through the at-fault driver's insurance, your own policy, or your attorney. Call us and we'll explain how billing works for your situation.
I'm not in pain yet. Should I still come in?
Getting checked within a few days is wise, since symptoms often appear later.
Do you work with attorneys?
Yes, we provide records and documentation when you authorize it.
