We treat many car crash cases in our Corvallis office, and a standard symptom we see in our patients is headache. Why is headache such a common problem after a car accident? How can chiropractic care help you recover? Chiropractic in Corvallis can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.
There are many different types of headache. Headache that's caused by a car crash, though, usually starts as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the neck. In a crash, the neck muscles can be damaged, which causes swelling and soreness. These types of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the temple.
Another frequent cause of headache after a collision that we see in our Corvallis office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that originate in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is very common after a crash, and it's important to get care for this type of problem to prevent the development of scar tissue.
Chiropractic Therapy is an excellent way to treat headaches, including those triggered by car crashes. Your chiropractic doctor will help reduce the irritation and stress in your neck, which will help reduce the headache pain.
