Headache, Car Crashes and How Chiropractic Care Can Help

We deal with many car crash cases in our Tucson office, and a common symptom we see in our patients is headache. If you have headache after an auto injury, don't worry. Dr. Conlee sees this type of problem frequently in our Tucson office. Chiropractic in Tucson can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.

How Head Pain Is Caused by Auto Accident and How Dr. Conlee Can Help You

There are many different kinds of headache. Headache that's triggered by a car accident, though, typically begins as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the neck. In a collision, the neck muscles can be torn, which causes swelling and pain. These kinds of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the temple.

Another common cause of pain after a collision that we see in our Tucson 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.
