Common Airbag and Seatbelt Injuries

Airbags and seatbelts save lives every day. That doesn't mean that they never cause harm. The bad news is that even the best restraint cannot cushion you completely from every auto accident injury. If you need relief from a car accident injury, a chiropractor on our team can help you to heal and move on. If you live in the area of Miramar, FL, Miami Garden, FL, Pembroke Pines, FL, West Park, FL, or Cooper City, FL, we at Walker Chiropractic and Wellness Center offer individualized care for auto accident victims.

Whiplash

Whiplash is a common car accident injury. When you stop suddenly in a car crash, your neck may move violently back and forth. Seeking chiropractic care can help reduce your pain and potentially speed up the healing process.

Other Sprains and Strained Ligaments

The rest of your body will continue to move rapidly while you are restrained. This can lead to serious injuries to your tendons and ligaments.

Abrasions and Burns

The airbag and seatbelt can cause a condition similar to rug burn when they rub against your skin during impact.

Shoulder Injuries

Straining against your seatbelt during a collision can damage your shoulder joint. Shoulder injuries are common because of the location of your seatbelt.

Back Injuries

When your body is thrown into your seatbelt, you might also injure your back. This can take the form of a slipped disc or another kind of back injury.
