COMMON SYMPTOMS OF WHIPLASH

The Miami Back Institute utilizes a multi-disciplinary team approach in providing care to patients. Our doctors have successfully treated thousands of accident injury cases over the past 20 years. This experience is applied to every patient and every situation and results assure clinical excellence, cost effectiveness and, most importantly, personalized care that helps promote quicker recovery,

With the increase in car accidents today, whiplash injuries have become nearly routine on local roads and highways. The injury itself is always complicated and it is sometimes overlooked by family practitioners or emergency room doctors. Their training and experience leads them to immediate concern for shock, possible broken bones and other serious or life-threatening injuries. Unless a neck injury is readily apparent and the patient expresses feelings of pain, whiplash often gets a low priority in the emergency room. Whiplash symptoms can occur immediately following an accident or may not be seen for days or weeks following the accident.

At the Miami Back Institute our doctors are trained to identify signs and symptoms of whiplash when a patient seeks help at one of our clinics. The Miami Back Institute team of doctors will documents the signs of the whiplash injury and then confirm the findings with x-ray, MRI and other diagnostic testing when appropriate. We offer same day appointments, whenever possible. If you think that you may have a whiplash injury, call now for an evaluation. It's painless and most times covered by your automobile insurance.

Whiplash injuries require proper treatment.  If left untreated, these injuries will lead to chronic pain, psychological uncertainty and possible spinal arthritis.

If you have been in an accident and have pain, even if it is minor, consult with a doctor who has experience treating accident injuries. Our professional staff has over 20 years experience in managing Personal Injury cases.
