Herniated Discs after MVA in Scarborough or Woodbridge
The vertebral discs located between adjacent vertebrae in the spine, act like shock absorbers and minimize the load on the bones. A motor vehicle accident can have such a forceful impact that it can cause a disc to slip. Such an injury is called a herniated disc. It is actually a protrusion into the vertebral canal that is pinching the spinal cord. The symptoms include pain, weakness and numbness or all of them. To get prompt relief from symptoms, the patient needs prompt diagnosis and treatment by a specialist. A complete physical examination and review of medical imaging by a healthcare professional can help in diagnosing the condition.

Treatment after a car accident
Treatment depends on the extent and severity of the injury and symptoms. In case of minor injury, a non-surgical and minimally invasive approach may be recommended. I can only prepare an effective treatment plan after the injury has been diagnosed properly. Car accident victims with pain in the spine, must visit an orthopedic spine specialist.
