Motor Vehicle Accident Injuries

Anon

On December 8th, I was involved in a serious accident that left multiple fractures to my pelvis and deep scar tissue to my right thigh. I was in bed visit rest for three months. I was worried that the muscles in my leg wouldn’t regain the strength they had. We came into Pure Physical Therapy and spoke to Mr. Frank Garza. After the evaluation, Mr. Garza asked what I expected out of PT. I told him, “to go back to using my leg, back at 100%,” he looked at me and said, “let’s do it then” with a nod of confidence. They gave me the push I needed to walk again.

When I first walked into the office, I couldn't move my left arm due to an accident I was involved in. After 10 weeks of physical therapy, and thanks to the staff at Pure Physical Therapy, I have finally reached my goals and can return back to work safely.

I was in a car accident which resulted in a fractured wrist and pinky. I was in a cast for two months which kept my left hand completely immobilized. Upon having the cast removed I had trouble performing simple tasks and I refrained from using my left hand. After receiving therapy I am able to now use my left hand for weight lifting tasks. I feel I am able to use my wrist and finger (pinky) in a lot more of my everyday tasks. The stretches and exercises really help.

Have You Been Involved in an Auto Accident? Physical Therapy Can Help In Your Recovery

Being in an auto accident is one of the most common reasons people find themselves in need of physical therapy. You can sustain any number of injuries to your body from the impact of an accident, and those injuries can cause long-lasting aches and pains for years to come — if they’re not attended to properly!

Have you been involved in a car accident? If so, Pure Physical Therapy & Pilates can help provide the relief you need to start feeling better.

Our McAllen, TX physical therapists are trained in car accident injury recovery and have the tools to help you recover from all types of motor vehicle injuries.

Have you sustained any of these injuries?

There are several different injuries a person can receive if they’re involved in a car accident. Head and back injuries from a car wreck are typically the most serious. Head injuries can lead to vision problems, skull fractures, and concussions. With a concussion, you may experience dizziness and headaches.

Whiplash is another injury and can be very painful and restrict movement. The sudden movement of the neck and head in a car accident can cause whiplash. Blunt force trauma from a car accident can collapse lungs and break ribs.

Herniated discs, neck injuries, and chest injuries are also common. If you’ve been involved in a car accident that resulted in you experiencing pain in any of these areas, getting a medical evaluation is a must. For a quicker recovery, it’s best to engage in physical therapy treatments at Pure Physical Therapy & Pilates.

How physical therapy can help with pain relief

There are many, many reasons to undergo physical therapy after you’ve been in an auto accident, as it supports the recovery process and can also prevent long-term damage from a car accident, including migraines and chronic pain.

After a car accident, you may experience pain, reduced range of motion, headaches, or stiffness. It may be hard for you to continue to do all of the things you normally enjoy doing. Keep in mind that not all symptoms appear right after a car accident — it can take months for you to really start feeling the worst of your pain!

Physical therapy is a good option because it will help you to keep pain symptoms at bay, improve flexibility, increase strength, and recover faster from injuries. The sooner you get physical therapy after a car wreck, the better you’ll feel in another 6 to 12 months. As a matter of fact, a Medscape study revealed that those who didn’t receive physical therapy were much more likely to suffer from degenerative disc disease.

Specific benefits to physical therapy after a motor vehicle accident include:

Curing Vertigo

Physical therapists can even treat vertigo due to a car accident. In as little as one treatment, they can fix a dysfunction in the vestibular system.

Restoring Function

You can still benefit from physical therapy even if you had an injury years ago. Using cardiovascular rehab techniques and strength training, a physical therapist can help relieve old pain and improve mobility. Physical therapy is a non-invasive treatment, and you won’t wind up having to rely on pain medications for relief.

Avoiding Surgery

Physical therapy also helps you avoid surgery. It strengthens ligaments, tendons, and muscles, which protect the body’s structures. It’s also a much more cost-effective solution than an operation is.

Less pain

The obvious benefit of physical therapy is that it helps reduce pain. Every exercise and stretch prescribed by a physical therapist has a specific goal for recovery and improves function and mobility. Our McAllen, TX physical therapist will develop a personalized treatment plan targeted to your car injury.

Types of physical therapy treatments used to treat motor vehicle accident injuries include massage therapy, manual manipulation, ultrasound, ice and cold therapy, specific exercises, targeted massage, stretching, and aquatic therapy. Therapeutic exercises pump oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the injury site and enhance healing.

Pure Physical Therapy & Pilates takes a safe, natural approach to healing for car accident injuries. Our physical therapists can also provide services for pulmonary rehab, neurological rehab, cardiovascular, orthopedic, and post-op care.
