LinkedInFacebookInstagramXPinterestYoutube

A car accident can be a physically and emotionally traumatic experience depending on the extent of the damage. In the midst of the chaos that surrounds a car accident, it can be tough to think clearly about how you should react and move forward.

Atlanta Orthopedic Doctors and Car Accident Injury Treatment

That’s why our Atlanta orthopedic doctors are here; to help you get started on your personal path to recovery. Today, our orthopedic doctors would like to offer some information and tips on how you can take proper care of yourself after a car accident in Atlanta.

What To Do After a Car Accident in Atlanta

We covered this in detail with a What To Do After A Car Accident Checklist! Here are some steps that you should follow whenever you sustain car accident injuries:

Schedule A Consultation With One of Our Atlanta Orthopedic Doctors

If you’ve sustained any physical trauma, regardless of how minor, it’s imperative that you are examined by one of the experienced Atlanta orthopedic doctors at AICA. First, they can help diagnose the source of your injury, provide appropriate chiropractic treatment solutions, and prescribe medication if necessary. Also, in case you are interested in filing an injury accident claim, you’ll need to collect official medical records of your injuries, which can only be provided by our Atlanta orthopedic doctors.

Get Plenty of Rest and Keep an Eye Out For Any Car Accident Injury Symptoms

The next step you’ll want to take is to allow yourself to get plenty of rest for a few days. It’s important to give your body some time to recover because injuries and symptoms take a few days to several weeks to appear, depending on the type of injury you may have sustained. This is especially the case when it comes to concussions. If you notice that you’re suddenly feeling dizzy, confused or have chronic headaches, it’s time to contact our clinic.

Professional Support

If you need to recover from an extensive injury, ask your Atlanta orthopedic doctor for a recommendation for an orthopedic doctor or occupational therapist. They’ll help your body recovery and return to its regular status quickly and safely.

Additionally, if you’re still having difficulty processing and moving past the accident on a mental/emotional level, consider speaking with a licensed therapist who can provide you with the tools that you need to better cope with the situation. You can learn more about post-accident recovery and how we can help treat your injuries by contacting our office to schedule a consultation. Call us today at (404) 855-2141.

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
