It’s very important to seek medical attention as soon as possible after being in a car accident. Even if you feel fine, you could have an injury that isn’t yet showing symptoms, or adrenaline could be masking your pain. Whiplash, a common auto injury, typically doesn’t show symptoms until days or weeks after the initial injury. At SunCoast SpineCare: Chiropractic Neurology, our chiropractor, Dr. Jay Schwartz, has extensive experience evaluating and treating auto accident injuries in Bradenton, FL. Additionally, Dr. Schwartz is board certified in electrodiagnosis, further ensuring comprehensive care for our patients.

When Should You Visit an Auto Accident Chiropractor? 

You should visit Dr. Schwartz for an auto accident injury examination as soon as possible after your accident, as required by Florida law which mandates seeing a physician within 14 days of the incident for coverage. Waiting too long to get evaluated could cause hidden injuries to get worse, and cause complications like chronic pain, inflammation, headaches, and trouble sleeping. When you visit Dr. Schwartz right away, he will help you get back to your regular routine faster and will reduce your risk of complications.

What to Expect During Your Visit With Dr. Schwartz

Dr. Schwartz will complete a thorough physical examination and will screen you for symptoms of common auto injuries like whiplash, concussion, muscle sprains and strains, contusions, spinal injury, and broken bones. He will also run diagnostic imaging tests to look for hidden injuries. He will take your medical history and take down the details about the car accident. He will then design a personalized chiropractic auto injury treatment plan. Dr. Schwartz can also refer you to a personal injury attorney and preserve evidence in case you decide to file a personal injury lawsuit related to your car accident.
