Spine Evaluation After a Car Accident
Spine injuries from motor vehicle accidents can range from whiplash and soft-tissue strain to herniated discs and nerve injury — and symptoms sometimes appear days later. At Apteum Spine, we provide thorough evaluation, clear documentation, and a personalized treatment plan for patients injured in auto accidents, including No-Fault and personal injury cases.
Common Auto-Accident Spine Injuries
• Whiplash and cervical strain
• Herniated discs in the neck or lower back
• Nerve compression causing arm or leg symptoms
• Aggravation of pre-existing spine conditions
What to Expect
• Detailed evaluation — a full history, neurological exam, and imaging as needed
• Complete documentation — thorough records that support your care and any claim
• Personalized treatment — from conservative care to minimally invasive surgery when warranted
Insurance & Claims
We work with No-Fault, Workers’ Compensation, and personal injury cases. Our team can help coordinate documentation so you can focus on recovery. We do not provide legal advice; your attorney can address claim specifics.
When to Be Seen
Get evaluated promptly after an accident — even if pain is mild at first. Seek emergency care for severe weakness, numbness, or loss of bladder or bowel control.
