Orthopedic Treatment For Bone Fractures and Other Car Accident Injuries

LinkedInFacebookInstagramXPinterestYoutube

The chances of sustaining car accident injuries as a result of a collision are high. Depending on the severity of the accident, it is not uncommon for those involved to end up with fractured or broken bones.

Car Accidents and Bone Fractures

Compression during the accident or even the force of the accident itself can cause bones to break. Bone fractures result in bruising, pain, and occasionally require surgery to repair.

Of the 206 bones in the human body, the most common to be fractured during an automobile accident include facial, jaw, and nose, collarbone, legs, ankles, feet, and toes, and arms, hands, and fingers. Our orthopedic doctors specialize in treating injuries like these. If you have been in a car accident recently, it is important to seek help sooner rather than later to help prevent long-term effects and damage.

How do you know if you have sustained a fracture, especially if you were only in a minor accident?

There are many common symptoms to watch out for, the more obvious being deformed appearance of affected area and loss of function, to more mild symptoms like redness, swelling, and bruising. If you experience localized pain that worsens with movement or pressure, that could be another sign that you have a fracture or bone injury.

Our team of orthopedic specialists is standing by ready to help you by developing a personalized treatment plan. These treatment plans are as unique as the injury itself. A basic one-size-fits-all methodology is never used by our physicians, and they are quick to provide quality care to get you back to your routine.

What should you do in the immediate aftermath of an injury prior to your appointment with an orthopedic doctor?

If your injury is in your neck or back, or you feel like you may have broken your hip, avoid moving and seek immediate medical attention. For injuries to your arms, legs, hands, or feet, attempt to splint the area to avoid movement that could worsen the injury.

Fractured bones need to be immobilized to heal properly and need to be properly positioned. Occasionally, surgical intervention is required if resetting the bone is not easily done. This type of repositioning may require the use of medical devices such as screws, plates, and pins to guarantee appropriate placement for healing.

Although a bone fracture can be a stressful event, choosing the proper doctor to assist in your recovery shouldn’t be. Make the call to our Atlanta orthopedic doctors at (404) 855-2141 and be confident in your decision to seek care from us.

Yesterday was my last day at AICA College Park since my accident in December, there is so much to say about the people who work here and the level of customer service, care, attention, friendliness, and overall amazing atmosphere that they provide. Location is perfect in College Park, right off the highway and in a small plaza with plenty of parking. The entire staff, from the front desk girls, to the physical therapy girls, to the chiros, and the medical team are AMAZING! I feel like I just lost my friends not being able to visit them twice a week every week. I will definitely miss coming here. All the smiles and warm welcomes received. The physical therapy - asking about my day, if everything is okay and helping my back and neck get better. I had the pleasure of having Dr. Hector as my chiropractor, he is awesome, was very helpful in the healing process and also a native Spanish speaker which is a plus for those of us who do speak Spanish. Before coming to AICA, I tried another injury clinic in ATL and walked out after 5 mins - so impersonal and cold. I am so glad that I found AICA in College Park. Trust me, if you are injured and need some healing and TLC you NEED to come to this clinic! Highly recommend to everyone. Thank you again to the guys and girls at AICA - xo Ms. Colon
