Your First Line of Defense For Accident Injuries

LinkedInFacebookInstagramXPinterestYoutube

No one anticipates for an accident to occur, so planning for one may seem a bit strange. It is, however, essential to know what to do in the event an emergency does happen to make sure that you are protected.

What To Expect For Most Accidents

If you are injured in an auto accident or a slip and fall accident and sustain injuries, often, paramedics or firefighters will be the first ones on the scene, and you must allow them to evaluate you even if you think you are okay.

The shock could be playing a factor in your mental state, and because of that, injuries not seen on the surface may be missed. It is always best for first responders to properly evaluate you and have them suggest whether or not you need to be seen by a doctor right away.

Medical Doctors

Following an accident, a trip to your family doctor isn’t always a bad idea. However, they don’t always specialize in treating the conditions in which you may have endured in the accident. A soft tissue injury could be overlooked by your family doctor, so it is always best to follow up with an Atlanta, accident doctor, or orthopedic specialist who specializes in treating those types of injuries.

Chiropractic Care

Working with one of our Atlanta chiropractors following an accident allows for a natural healing approach with no side effects, which makes this particular approach so attractive for accident victims. A chiropractor can diagnose and treat a multitude of injuries ranging from soft tissue injuries to spinal misalignments and provide effective treatments to manage the pain.

Orthopedic Doctors

When the victim of an accident suffers a fracture, ligament tear, or a spinal injury, an Atlanta, orthopedic doctor is often called to assess the patient. If the doctor feels it is needed, they will order an MRI to get a better picture of what is going and then, from there, determine if surgery is needed. It is up to the patient in most cases if they elect to have the surgical procedure; however, if the condition is life-threatening, surgery may be necessary.

If you have endured an injury due to an accident, contact AICA Orthopedics for a consultation to learn about all of your treatment options. Call 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
