If you or a loved one has been in a car accident and have felt symptoms of a concussion it's likely you sustained one. Even if you don't actually hit your head in the car accident you can still suffer from a concussion. It's called a cervical concussion. Your brain is inside your head, and your head sits upon your neck which sometimes can get whiplash during a car accident. This whipping motion of your neck forces your head to move in such a way where you actually can effect your brain; even without actually hitting your head.
If you have been in an accident recently and feel symptoms please contact our office at 301-588-7888 to schedule your appointment with Dr. Gilbert. We accept PIP and most insurances.
