Back Pain and Car Accidents

We work with many car accident cases in in our Landover Hills, District Heights and Rockville, MD office, and a widespread symptom we see in our patients is back pain. Let's look at why back pain is commonly experienced after an auto collision and see how chiropractic care can help you heal.

During a rear-end motor vehicle accident, your car and car seat are rapidly accelerated forward against your body. Since car seats don't perfectly align with the curve of your back, the seat can put inconsistent pressure on your 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 ligaments that hold your spine together. This type of injury can cause chronic back pain if not treated promptly. Fortunately, chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain.

Let us help you recover from back pain. Dr. Ashkan Aazami has helped many people with the same problem, and we can probably help you, too. Dr. Ashkan Aazami will first determine what's causing your pain and then work to restore your body to its natural functioning. Give our office a call today at (301) 322-7777 to make an appointment.
