Car Accidents in AtlantaAtlanta continues to grow in population and traffic. And the more traffic in Atlanta the more car accidents. What is the
best way to prevent injury or whiplash after a car accident. 1. Drive a safe car. 2. Keep space between
you and the car in front of you. If you are too close and a car rear ends you - you could get pushed into the car in front
of you causing a double collision. This double impact can cause a more severe injury. 3. Sit with your shoulder / head
back near the seat / head rest. This reduces the space your head and neck travels during the impact of a car accident. 4.
Wear your seatbelt. 5. If you have neck pain or back pain work to fix the problem now, a weak spine can be easily injured,
more severe whiplash. Atlanta is growing but so is the traffic - please be safe.

What is cauing your pain?A good diagnosis is the first step to a good treatment. If the diagnosis is not correct then the treatment may not be helpful.
There are 4 basic types of pain generators I see in clinical practice - the facets,the disc, the muscle and the nerve. Each
structure will have a different presentation and a different treatment. So Step 1 is to get a solid diagnosis, the diagnosis
will become more solid over time.
