Car accident injuries are often hidden after you have been in an auto accident.. Please take a few minutes and read this blog. It contains very important information.

My name is Dr. Stockstad and I help all types of car accident victims identify and prevent small, unnoticeable injuries from growing into permanent, painful, life altering injuries.

Let’s face it; you’ve been in a car accident. You’re probably a little shaken up, maybe even seriously injured. The last thing you want to hear is more negativity. You have had to deal  with your car damage, possibly the other car’s damage, insurance companies, maybe hospital bills, maybe even lawyers.  It just seems like this auto accident injuries and issues just take take over your life.

Maybe you are  wanting to just settle your case and get this thing behind you. I understand how you are feeling but I also don't want to see you make the same mistake that many individuals make and then end regretting this later when the pain and bills start adding up.

The fact is that you may have hidden, soft tissue injuries that may not erupt for months or years down the road. It’s like a volcano just waiting to explode!

When it does, the pain may come on quickly and unfortunately, may not be fixable due to the permanent damage caused by neglect. The last thing you want to happen is let something like this slip by. You must take precautions to prevent this disaster!

Believe it or not, some people who experience accidents have pain and still avoid getting treatment. They think “My pain will go away, I’m okay.” Or, “This medication seems to be helping, there wasn’t that much damage, it was just a fender bender!” Or, “I’m in pretty good shape, I’m fine, I’m just happy I survived!” Don’t make these excuses.

Some even have an ego and think they’re tough enough to survive anything.

Listen, soft tissue injury is no joke – you owe it yourself to be sure. You need to be sure your body has not received a soft tissue injury, even if you’ve gotten an x-ray.
