Treatments for Accident-Related Injuries
Understanding Your Treatment Options
Serious bodily injuries require advanced medical treatment and ongoing care. Though they can be debilitating, many severe and catastrophic injuries can heal partially or fully with the proper treatment.
The first step in getting the right treatment for your injuries is seeing a qualified medical professional who can provide an accurate diagnosis. If you were injured in an accident or due to any traumatic incident, do not wait to visit a doctor. Even if you initially believe your injuries are not that serious, a trained medical professional can rule out underlying injuries, diagnose related conditions or complications, and provide a treatment plan.

Common Types of Injury Treatments
Injury treatments are as varied as injuries themselves. The nature and severity of your injuries will play a critical role in your treatment plan. For example, someone who suffers whiplash in a car accident will require a different level of treatment and care than someone who sustains a concussion after slipping and falling in a grocery store.
Click below to learn more about some common types of injury treatments, including what they are and how they are used:
- Facet Joint Pain: Facet joint pain is common with whiplash and other spine injuries. Some treatment options include surgery, analgesics, physical therapy, osteopathic manipulation, laser surgery, and bone fusion.
- VAX-D Therapy: VAX-D therapy is an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment option for those suffering from lower back pain and related weakness, numbness, and/or pain in the legs. VAX-D therapy provides patients with the tools needed to treat and prevent future back pain.
- Pain Management: Pain management is a specialized treatment intended to minimize the impact of chronic pain or pain associated with surgery. Pain management often involves physical therapy, injections, changes in lifestyle/activities, and psychological care.

As highly experienced personal injury attorneys, we are well-versed in numerous treatment options for a variety of accident-related and traumatic injuries.
Why You Should Always See a Doctor After an Accident
Not all serious injuries are obvious. After an accident, you may be in shock and may not realize the full extent of your injuries. In other cases, serious injuries can take hours, days, or even weeks to appear. However, the longer these injuries go untreated, the worse their effects can be.
After an accident, no matter how seemingly minor it may be, you should always see a medical professional. This is true even when your injuries seem mild, may heal on their own, or appear only as pain and/or soreness. Only a medical professional can accurately diagnose your injuries or pain and provide a treatment plan tailored to your recovery.
After an accident or traumatic event, be sure to do the following:
- Call 911 if anyone appears severely injured
- Do not move anyone who appears to have serious injuries
- Do not move or overexert yourself if you are injured
- If you do not need emergency medical attention, see a doctor as soon as possible
- Inform your doctor of what happened and any symptoms you are experiencing
- Do not downplay your symptoms or injuries
- Follow your doctor’s instructions and treatment plan
- Attend all follow-up appointments
- Do not stop your treatment plan unless/until instructed to do so by your doctor
