Injury to the head and neck is a common, often underdiagnosed condition that can significantly impact someone’s life and leave them disabled. After someone suffers a blow to the head, whether it be a car accident, sports injury, work accident, or any other trauma, the patient can often experience prolonged suffering that can last months or years. It is important to start treatment as early as possible.
People often assume that pain is the only symptom after someone suffers a head injury. That is only the tip of the iceberg. Patients often experience fatigue, “brain fog”, difficulty with concentration and memory, feeling tired all the time but unable to sleep, mood problems and visual problems. If not addressed, these symptoms can continue, worsen and lead to prolonged suffering and disability.
