Car accidents,
early treatment is crucial.

Hello. I am Dr. Ji-Yeon Hong, Director of Yon Oriental Medicine Clinic.

As the weather turns colder, more people are opting for cars over walking, leading to an increase in patients visiting us following car accidents.

Most patients typically visit us after rear-end collisions. Regardless of the impact type, I would like to discuss common symptoms arising from vehicle-to-vehicle collisions and the treatment methods available at Yon Oriental Medicine Clinic.

Car accident
Symptoms

Representative symptoms
caused by collisions

During a vehicle collision, our bodies
experience a sudden impact,
resulting in pain in various areas.

Cervical sprain

Cervical sprain and stiffness

The sudden forward jerk of the head causes a cervical sprain, leading to stiffness from the back of the neck to the shoulders. Pain may be severe when moving the head.

Back pain

Lower back muscle tension and pain

The impact, occurring while seated and constrained in the vehicle, causes the lower back muscles to tense up or strain. A dull, persistent pain may last for a long time.

Ankle and wrist pain

Ankle and wrist pain

Drivers may experience tension and pain in the ankles and wrists due to the impact received while pressing the pedals or gripping the steering wheel tightly.

Bruising

Bruising

Patients often complain of bruising and contusions in various parts of the body caused by impacts from internal vehicle structures or seatbelts.

Children's Care

Do children also experience aftereffects from car accidents?

Pediatric car accident

Car accidents are not just for adults. Children can also be impacted while riding in a vehicle. Our clinic sees children of various ages, from 7–8-month-old babies to 2–3-year-olds, 6–7-year-olds, and 12–13-year-olds, who have been involved in car accidents.

After an accident, children may become unusually fussy at night or wake up crying from fright. They might have trouble sleeping, become unusually clingy to their mothers, or develop various symptoms such as sudden constipation or diarrhea.

While the symptoms appear in many ways, the cause is singular. Unless there is a structural issue due to physical trauma, children's fright from the shock of the accident manifests as various physical symptoms. They can fully recover through herbal medicine that calms their startled hearts and gentle, pain-free acupuncture treatments. Please do not leave them untreated and seek active medical care.
