Where do you go for treatment after a car accident? People typically go to the Emergency Room (ER) or an urgent care clinic. Depending on the injury you sustain, you may also need to see a chiropractor. 

Why see a chiropractor? Because you're likely to come down with spine-related injuries after a car accident. For instance, herniated or bulging disk injuries are common. They can cause severe pain but can also be asymptomatic, so people move around with herniations and bulging disks without knowing.
