Shoulder pain from auto accident
Shoulder Pain Due To An Auto Accident
Shoulder Injuries Common In Nashville Car Accidents
The rotator cuff tendon can shift, becoming trapped under the end of the collar bone. This causes pain and inflammation of the tendon. Trauma to the shoulder during a car accident can also cause tears in the cartilage and muscles. Other causes of shoulder pain include strains and sprains, dislocation and frozen shoulder.
Shoulder Injury Symptoms
While there may be some pain and discomfort immediately after your car accident, the brunt of your shoulder injury may not be apparent for one to two days after your accident. Therefore, we recommend scheduling an appointment with our chiropractor in Nashville as soon as possible after your accident. By the time you feel pain, your body has already started attempting to heal the injury by creating swelling, inflammation and scar tissue, which can cause the injury to spread to the surrounding soft tissues.
