Can Back Injury Cause Health Problems?

July 26th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Low Back

I have high BP for the first time in my life other than pregnancy. I’ve had a few other odd symptoms all since I was in a car accident last May. Was wondering if the back injury could be the underlying cause of the problems.

    Yes, if one vertebrea is out it can pinch nerves, cut off blood supply to certain areas and all other types of symptoms. They may seem unrelated but are probably directly related to subluxation (your back being out). You should always seek chiropratic immediately and massage, if possible. My mother was in an accident 20 years ago, did not get treatment and now has serious health problems because of it. I was in an accident 2 months ago, got chiropratic immediatly, and massage and have completely recovered. My second set of x-rays shows my spine has almost completly realigned. My advice: get chiropractic ASAP. 3 times a week for several months, then 2.. your chiropractor should advise you. Hopefully you have insurance to cover it!

    Only if surgery or heavy medication is needed.

    Sound unlikely!
    After your accident I am 100% sure the doctors and medical professionals would have assessed you entirely to look for damage and injury in the whole of your body!
    Maybe something has developed since the accident, but it seems strange specially since the incident was near a year ago.
    It all cases relating to health ‘Always’ get the advice and exams from a professional if you are experiencing any problems.
    All the very best to you!
