Back Pain and Auto Injury

Back Pain is a common condition after a car crash, and it's something that Dr. Lipsitz sees often in our Waldorf, MD office. Chiropractic care is an excellent way to treat back pain. Let's look at how back pain is caused by a crash and how Dr. Lipsitz can help you.

During a rear-end car crash, your car and car seat are quickly accelerated forward against your torso. Since car seats don't perfectly align with the curvature of your back, the car seat can put uneven force on your lower back. This can cause some of your spinal vertebrae to move in one direction while an adjacent vertebrae might move in another direction. This differential motion can sprain or strain the structures that hold your spine together. These types of injuries can cause chronic back pain if not treated right away. Thankfully, chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain.

Dr. Lipsitz is here in Waldorf, MD to help you recover from back pain. We've been helping patients since 2006 and we can probably help you, too.
