Many of us have experienced shoulder pain that just won’t go away. Shoulder injuries can be quite a nuisance. A shoulder injury may prevent you from performing everyday activities, such as exercise. When rest or pain medication have not helped alleviate your pain, it may be time to visit a chiropractor.
Lower back pain can be brought on by a variety of different reasons from workplace accidents to car collisions. This pain can be debilitating and can interrupt your ability to work or perform daily tasks. The cost of treatment and medication can add up quickly if you are left to pay for these bills on your own. But what do you do if this pain was brought on by your job or due to someone else’s negligence?
Since brain injuries are not visible to the naked eye, someone with a concussion may “look” normal, or be directed to “just walk it off.” This is the worst advice, and medical help should be sought immediately. Concussions can be a very serious injury. Permanent brain damage may occur if left untreated. Getting an MRI after sustaining a head injury could catch any damage that could cause long term complications. One of the most valuable benefits of having an MRI scan after a concussion is obtaining solid information about your condition. You’ll know for sure whether your head injury is serious and if treatment is needed. You can never be too cautious when dealing with a concussion.
If you’ve been in a car accident and walked away seemingly okay, you should still seek medical attention. Other than obvious major displays of injuries like broken bones, and wounds, there could be a chance of unseen damage that’s been done. If you have bruising, there could also be a chance that you have a hematoma. These are serious and can sometimes be life-threatening without treatment.
Many moderate to severe TBI (traumatic brain injuries) accidents require a patient to be examined by multiple doctors. It is important that the victim be observed and examined as soon as possible to determine his or her condition. Most patients will need extensive medical treatment and being seen by more than one doctor can ensure the best chances for a better life. But what doctor should they see first?
