Detection of Injuries

When the accident occurs, sometimes the patients do not feel the pain or discomfort immediately because your “Fight or Flight”, sympathetic nervous system response keeps your body from feeling pain so you can perform to “Survive”. it is our natural defense system. However, within a day or two, as the body calms down, one would start experiencing the pain and discomfort although their response may vary. Be attentive to listen to your body. If the pain or symptoms that didn’t exist before the accident appear and lingers around more than several days, contact our office for a consultation with Dr. Choi today!

What is Whiplash?

Whiplash is a relatively common injury that occurs to a person’s neck following a sudden acceleration-deceleration force, most commonly from motor vehicle accidents. The term “whiplash” was first used in 1928. The term “railway spine” was used to describe a similar condition that was common in persons involved in train accidents prior to 1928. The term “whiplash injury” describes damages to both the bone structures and soft tissues, while “whiplash associated disorders” describes a more severe and chronic condition. Dr. Choi has treated numerous patients with whiplash injuries in Aurora as well as other auto accident-related injuries.

The symptoms of a whiplash injury include any or all of the followings:

• headaches
• pain in the shoulders, between the shoulder blades
• pain in one or both arms
• fatigue
• dizziness
• vision problems
• ringing in the ears
• poor concentration/memory loss (short term)
• neck pain/stiffness
• tight/sore muscles
• low back pain
• sleep disturbances

Experience Counts!

Clinical Skills

Are all the auto injuries rather similar in nature? No, not when it comes down to how the accident occurred and how and when the patient’s symptoms began. Although accidents happen in the same model car with the same speed, even in the same manner, the outcome might be different. In this case, the doctor needs to be a detective somehow to rather closely figure out what might have happened to the patient(s) at the time of the impact and the accident. That’s why they call this type of practice “forensic” medicine. One has to be educated and experienced in many ways which enable one to understand the mechanisms of injury and come up with the best possible treatment accordingly for the best outcome of patients’ injuries because the mystery of the mechanisms of injury doesn’t always respond the same way with the same symptoms.

What truly counts for this type of care is the understanding of human physiology to this type of trauma and the experiences of treating and yielding positive outcomes on their progress. Dr. Choi has been treating numerous auto injury patients successfully to regain their health and function based on those factors explained previously.
