\"what_should_i_do_if_i_fall\"Have you seen those YouTube video compilations of people falling in spectacular ways? You probably have. We almost can\u2019t help but laugh at the video footage, but of course, what happens next is no laughing matter. Falls like that can really hurt!<\/p>\n

Yours doesn\u2019t have to be as spectacular as some of the ones you\u2019ll find on the videos mentioned earlier in order to be taken seriously, and should you suffer a fall, the first order of business is to make sure nothing\u2019s broken. If you\u2019re not absolutely certain, then head to your doctor\u2019s office or the ER to get an X-ray so you know, because that\u2019s going to determine your next steps in terms of treatment.<\/p>\n

Assuming nothing\u2019s broken, your next call should probably be to our chiropractic office. Between the time you place the call to our chiropractor\u2019s office and the time of the appointment, be sure to apply ice packs to any parts of your body stiff, swollen, or sore, courtesy of the fall you suffered. That will help leach out the swelling and reduce inflammation, which will make it easier for us to treat you.<\/p>\n

On the day of your appointment, you\u2019ll be given a thorough exam, and be asked a number of questions about the circumstances surrounding the fall. Even if the details are a bit hazy (and they might be), answer as completely as you can, because this too, will ensure that your injuries are properly understood and treated.<\/p>\n

Nobody likes being on the sidelines of life, and a painful fall can certainly put you there. The good news though, is that your chiropractor can help reduce, and ultimately eliminate the pain you\u2019ll undoubtedly be in, in the days immediately following the fall, and can get you back in the game before you know it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
