Common Air Bag Injuries Treated at North Charleston Location

Spine Center Can Help with Your Airbag and Other Auto Accident Injuries

Airbags save lives every day. They also cause real damage due to the force it takes to cushion and stop the human body in extreme situations like those that occur in an auto accident. We help people heal correctly from an auto accident injury in and around N. Charleston, SC.

Common Airbag Injuries from Auto Accidents:

  • Cervical Injury - Neck and spine injuries are common after auto accidents involving airbags. Special care is required to make sure that proper healing happens from the start to prevent more debilitating pain.
  • Shoulder Injury - Depending on the position in the car, the seatbelt, and which airbag deployed, shoulder injuries can occur. These injuries are likely much less than the injury the body would have had without the airbag, but they can still hurt drastically and need therapy for a full recovery.
  • Upper Limb Injury - You may be surprised at how many people suffer from broken wrists and fingers after an airbag injury. If your hand is in front of your body or face it may take much of the trauma. Once again, this is still better than the alternative without the airbag and seatbelt.
  • Lumbar Spine Injury - Even the lower back can be injured in an airbag injury depending on variables such as seatbelt use, position in car, and severity of the wreck. This area is commonly injured in accidents without seatbelts or airbags, but are still a risk with these safety measures. Chiropractic care soon after can mean much less pain in the long run, and even faster healing here and now.
