Diagnosing Workplace Accidents
The process of diagnosing a workplace accident will typically begin by asking questions about your job, the duties you perform as part of your job, and your lifestyle. We may also take a personal and family medical history. In some cases, we may perform imaging tests, including X-rays, to assess the extent of your injuries. Once the evaluation has been performed, we will then create a treatment plan for your injuries. This treatment plan will be designed to help you recover fully so that you can get back to your life and get back to work without suffering any limitations.
Getting Help for Workplace Injuries with Chiropractic Treatment
Once we have diagnosed your injury, will then work with you to address that injury. We provide a variety of treatment modalities to restore full function following an injury. These treatments may also include at-home exercises.
If you have sustained an injury in the workplace, please do not hesitate to contact Douglas Chiropractic to schedule an evaluation. Even if you do not believe your injury is serious, it is still important to be evaluated as soon as possible. In many instances involving workplace accidents, injuries and symptoms are not immediately apparent. Even so, symptoms may arise at some time later. If injuries are left untreated, they can result in chronic problems. There is no reason for this to happen.
