Numbness and Tingling

Lake Worth FL Chiropractor Explains Numbness and Tingling Symptoms

Lake Worth Chiropractic & Wellness treats numbness, tingling, chronic pain or loss of mobility symptoms which may indicate herniated discs & sciatica

At Lake Worth Chiropractic & Wellness, we know that car accident injuries are complex. Your symptoms may not be obvious or severe right away, and they may not include chronic pain or loss of mobility. However, it's important to seek treatment after an accident injury, especially if your symptoms include numbness or tingling. Our Lake Worth chiropractor will work hard to understand the root of your symptoms and find a solution.

Symptoms of Sciatic Nerve Damage After Car Accidents

Have you noticed numbness in your legs, or tingling that spreads down your back and into one or both legs and feet? If so, you may have sciatica as a result of a car accident injury. The biggest nerve in your body, the sciatic nerve, runs from your lower back into your legs. If anything pinches or irritates the sciatic nerve's roots in your back, it could cause abnormal sensations or cut off feeling to connected body parts. This is called sciatica, and it's one of many conditions that we treat here at Lake Worth Chiropractic & Wellness.

Symptoms of Herniated Discs After Car Accidents

Back pain and stiffness aren't the only symptoms of back injuries during car accidents. Your spinal column is made of discs that contain soft spinal fluid inside harder outer cores, and the nerve root runs through these discs. If the force of an accident puts stress on your spinal column, a disc may move out of place, allowing the disc and its inner fluid to put abnormal pressure on your nerves. Numbness and tingling may point to a herniated disc after a car accident.

Diagnosing Your Numbness and Tingling

If you want to reverse your nerve damage and numbness, you need a car accident chiropractor who understands the nuances between different car accident injuries. At Lake Worth Chiropractic & Wellness, our chiropractic techniques are designed to tackle the root of your problem instead of covering up the symptoms. If you have sciatica, for example, we will rule out other possible causes – such as degenerative disc disease or age-related stenosis – and figure out whether a herniated disc or small fracture is the cause of your accident-related sciatica. If you have a severed nerve or small fracture, you may need a medical or surgical solution in order to fully heal. But if your symptoms are caused by misalignment, tension, or moderate nerve or tissue damage, we will work on a personalized treatment plan for you.  

Chiropractic Care for Numbness and Tingling

Our Lake Worth chiropractor uses a variety of spinal manipulation techniques to treat car accident injuries. If your spine isn't aligned properly, we will use manual or mechanical chiropractic adjustments to rebalance your spine and relieve the pressure on your sciatic nerve. If you have inflammation and tissue damage that is putting pressure on your nerve, we may incorporate massage therapy into your injury treatment plan.
