Understanding concussion trauma
The injury a car accident
can cause without you
hitting your head.
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that can occur without losing consciousness or striking the head directly. Headache, dizziness, confusion, vomiting, weakness, or worsening symptoms after a collision need prompt medical assessment. Chiropractic care is not a substitute for emergency or neurological evaluation. Concussion and whiplash can occur together, so neck pain may need a separate musculoskeletal evaluation after medical clearance. Florida PIP generally requires initial services and care within 14 days of a motor vehicle accident (Fla. Stat. § 627.736), with coverage depending on eligibility and policy terms.
