Common Types of Truck Accident Injuries

Being in a truck accident can cause all kinds of injuries ranging from mild to severe. You might end up with damage to your upper spine or neck, such as whiplash. This injury occurs when you have your head thrown back and forth rapidly during a collision. You might also have injuries to other joints in your body, head injuries or internal injuries. Since trucks are much bigger than cars, a truck accident injury is usually much more serious than an auto accident injury. 

Keep in mind that not all injuries from truck accidents are obvious. Some of these injuries might produce no symptoms or only slight symptoms at first, but these can become worse over time. When these injuries do not heal properly, they can cause chronic pain that stays with you for many years. 

Examination After a Truck Accident

After being in a truck accident, it is essential to undergo an examination. Our Lubbock chiropractor can check your spine and other areas of your body for signs of damage or injuries. This exam involves testing your muscle strength, checking your range of motion and gathering information on how severe your symptoms are. You might also need to have imaging tests done, such as X-rays, for a more accurate injury diagnosis.
