Almost any motor vehicle crash is a traumatic event. From catastrophic collisions to fender-benders, there is a lot of force involved when a vehicle hits (or is hit by) something. Often, when people are in a car crash that seems minor, they do not notice any injury symptoms right away. This happens for a variety of reasons.
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) are a leading cause of death and disability in the United States, and car collisions are one of the leading causes of TBIs. 50,000 people die annually from TBIs, while 230,000 people are hospitalized and survive, and an estimated 80,000-90,000 people experience the onset of long-term disability as a result - currently, over 5.3 million people are living with disabilities resulting from a TBI.
Some of the most common injuries associated with car collisions occur in the neck, often alongside related head and back injuries. Like any injury stemming from a car collision, neck injuries can run the gamut in terms of severity -from minor soft tissue injuries to serious nerve and spine complications.
The spine can be divided into three distinct areas: cervical vertebrae (neck), thoracic vertebrae (upper back), and lumbar vertebrae (lower back). Each section of the spinal cord and its vertebrae are surrounded by discs, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves, which if injured can cause varying degrees of pain - from mild to debilitating, and temporary to permanent.
Many people will get at least a slight headache after a car collision even if they don't hit their head on anything. This is reasonable. Our bodies were simply not designed to comfortably withstand an immediate deceleration from 20 or 30 MPH to zero. Many car collision headaches will go away relatively quickly, but some do not.

This place was so great. As someone who is basically a professional patient (multiple health issues) I can honestly say that Dr. Adams and his staff really care. From the minute you walk in you are made to feel like your well being matters. Even on days when I wasn’t feeling well mentally or physically, Whitney always had a kind word and a smile when I walked in the door. Dr Adams always went out of his way to find common ground with me and make me feel welcome. I recommend this place for anyone needing to heal from an accident. North Alabama Spine and Rehab will make sure you’re on the road

North Alabama Spine and Rehab has the most professional, understanding, and caring group of individuals I have ever met. Maggie and Jess are hands down the best, they go above and beyond for their patients. From the time you walk in the door until the time you leave you are their number one priority. I highly recommend North Alabama Spine and Rehab.
