Nobody plans to get in a car accident and a car crash can be life altering.

What is the Average Trinity Car Accident Settlement Amount in Florida?

After a car accident, many clients often want to know the “average” amount of a personal injury settlement. Quantifying the average Trinity personal injury compensation amount is difficult, because no two cases are alike, and an “average” personal injury settlement does not really exist. You can calculate average from all settlements each year, but that’s not an accurate figure. Trying to put your injury claim into a box based on a hypothetical average may leave money on the table. Because, looking at prior verdicts or settlements is like comparing apples to oranges because there are so many factors and differences between cases. Some of the factors include:

  • Severity of injuries
  • Treatment received
  • Future medicals
  • Amount of insurance coverage available
  • Client’s age

Treatment after a Trinity Car Accident

Chiropractic Treatment after a Car Accident

After a car accident, medical treatment will vary based on your circumstances. Commonly, after a car accident, the initial treatment begins with a chiropractor for a physical examination to identify your injuries and develop the initial treatment plan to kickstart your recovery. Treatment with a chiropractor is frequent. Clients usually treat with their chiropractor three (3) times a week. It can seem a bit overwhelming, but most offices can coordinate your appointments around your schedules and offer flexible office hours. Eventually, as you progress, visits with your chiropractor will reduce to 1-2 times a week.

Diagnostic Imaging

X-Rays

The Chiropractor will initially review for you x-ray performed at the emergency room or urgent care clinic. If you have not had x-rays done the chiropractor will perform x-rays in office or refer you out to an imaging center before establishing a treatment plan.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

At some point, the chiropractor will order Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the areas you sustained injuries. They generally wait a few weeks before the MRIs are ordered. After a car accident, it is common to undergo an MRI of your cervical (neck) and lumbar (back) spine. MRIs are valuable in identifying your injuries because, unlike X-rays, MRIs will show soft tissues injuries. These types of injuries do not show up on X-rays. After the MRIs are done and reviewed, the chiropractor will make a referral to a specialist based on the MRI findings. If there are injuries to your spine, the chiropractor will refer you to an orthopedic specializing in spine injuries.

Orthopedic Treatment after a Trinity Car Accident

An orthopedic doctor will evaluate your MRIs, conduct an examination, and make recommendations for your treatment plan. The severity of your injuries will dictate what the orthopedic recommends. Sometimes an orthopedic may suggest continued chiropractic treatment, but other treatment interventions may be needed. The orthopedic may recommend other forms of treatment, such as injections and possibly surgery. Most orthopedics will suggest less invasive treatment options before recommending surgery.

Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI)

After completing your treatment plan, your doctor will place you at MMI, which means your healing process is complete. Your physical condition will not improve any further. Any treatment you receive after this point is considered maintenance care and required to keep you at MMI. MMI does not mean you’ve returned to your pre-accident state, but it is as close back to the state you enjoyed before your car accident.

PTSD AFTER A TRINITY CAR CRASH

Can a Car Crash Cause PTSD?

Car accidents can cause Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). According to an article in the National Library of Medicine, accident victims involved in a serious car accident, are at an increased risk for psychological problems, such as PTSD. A traumatic event such as a car accident and dealing with the chronic pain can cause an anxiety disorder such as PTSD. After a car crash, you may experience symptoms of PTSD. Common symptoms of PTSD are:

  1. Psychologically re-experiencing the trauma, such as nightmares, reliving the events of the car accident.
  2. Disturbed sleep.
  3. Fearful of driving or refusing to drive.
  4. Avoiding thoughts about the motor vehicle accident.
  5. Emotional numbness, or reduced emotions, or feeling detached from others.
  6. Feeling irritable.
  7. Heightened anxiety while driving.

If you are suffering from PTSD, it’s important to make your doctor aware of your symptoms so you can be evaluated, diagnosed and treated. Seeking treatment is necessary to avoid escalation of symptoms and possibly developing chronic PTSD. Remember it’s important to make your treating physicians aware of any symptoms you experience, no matter how small they may seem. You only have one body. Take care of yourself!
