Too many people take on accidents and traumas with out even knowing they have hurt themselves. It may not be hurt themselves as in constant pain, bruising, bleeding or something else, but in a way we call Subluxation. #Fatheroftheyear What we do is fall, look around, laugh, get back up and hope nobody saw. We may find a secluded spot and cry? As long as there is nothing broken or bleeding, we generally chalk it up to "I'm OK!" As a Chiropractor for 10 years, I can say that I have seen my share of patients who were OK at the time and are suffering now, months or years later. It's not always what we see that is important to take care of, but rather what we can't see that we need to take care of. #Spinalhygiene
What we know is that our body protects what it values the most. Brain / skull -- Spinal Cord / spinal column -- Heart and Lungs / rib cage. So really when you look at it even if there is no bruising or bleeding, you can and most like do have some internal injuries. The most prevalent in slip and falls are the tailbone and low back. Pain in most cases is present for some time and muscle spasms and tension is probably going to be there. But how do you correct your misstep?
The answer: Get checked out by a Chiropractor, Orthopedic, Physician, some one who can correctly evaluate your spine's structure and function to see if you may have any latent symptoms that will show up down the road. In most cases, only the Chiropractor will do an assessment as to whether future problems are possible, orthopedics and physicians are classically trained to address the here and now, not the future or progression of a possible problem.
