Car accidents occur every day throughout Mesquite, Garland, Dallas, Forney, Sunnyvale, and surrounding communities. Even low speed collisions can cause injuries to the spine, muscles, joints, and soft tissues. Many accident victims feel fine immediately after a crash, only to develop neck pain, back pain, headaches, stiffness, or mobility problems hours or days later.

Seeking evaluation from an experienced accident doctor is one of the most important steps you can take after a collision. At Texas Spine and Joint Rehabilitation, Dr. Daniel L. Pennell, D.C. provides comprehensive accident injury evaluation and treatment designed to identify injuries early, restore mobility, and help patients recover safely.

During an accident, the body is subjected to sudden acceleration and deceleration forces. These forces can disrupt normal spinal motion, strain muscles and ligaments, and irritate spinal discs.

Common accident injuries include:

• Whiplash

• Neck pain

• Back pain

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Soft tissue injuries

• Joint inflammation

• Headaches

Many of these injuries are not visible externally and may worsen without treatment.

Early evaluation helps identify injuries and begin treatment before long term complications develop.

Symptoms may appear immediately or develop gradually over time.

Common symptoms include:

• Neck stiffness

• Lower back pain

• Mid back pain

• Headaches

• Shoulder tension

• Muscle soreness

• Reduced mobility

These symptoms indicate underlying injury that should be evaluated professionally.

At Texas Spine and Joint Rehabilitation, accident injury evaluation includes:

• Detailed accident history review

• Spinal and joint examination

• Range of motion testing

• Functional movement assessment

• Neurological screening

This evaluation helps identify injury and determine appropriate treatment.

Treatment may include:

• Chiropractic care to restore joint mobility

• Soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension
