Personal Injuries Q&A

What are personal injuries?

A personal injury occurs as a result of someone else’s negligence or failure to act. If you fall on a slippery floor or get rear-ended in a car accident and you are in pain, it’s important to visit CoreSmart.

What are some examples of personal injuries?

At CoreSmart, Dr. Friedman treats various types of painful conditions arising from personal injuries, including:

  • Slip and fall injuries
  • Whiplash
  • Concussions
  • Sprains and strains
  • Motor Vehicle Accidents 

You also might benefit from treatment at CoreSmart if you are experiencing chronic pain.

What steps should I take in the event of a personal injury?

If you experience a personal injury, stop whatever you’re doing and alert the right people. For example, if you’re at work, let your direct supervisor know that you’re hurt and need to visit the doctor.

What happens during a personal injury visit?

At CoreSmart, a personal injury visit begins with a review of your medical records and a discussion of your injury, including what you were doing when it occurred, the symptoms you’re experiencing, and their severity.

After gathering that information, Dr. Friedman conducts a physical exam. He may also order laboratory testing and diagnostic imaging to get a complete picture of your health. Once Dr. Friedman determines the type of injury you experienced, he develops a custom treatment plan that relieves pain and encourages your body’s healing process.

How are personal injuries treated?

Treatment of a personal injury depends on several factors, including your age, symptoms, and their effect on your daily life. Usually, Dr. Friedman recommends conservative or minimally invasive treatments, like:

  • Corticosteroids
  • Anti-inflammatory medication
  • Muscle relaxers
  • Medical marijuana
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
  • Physical therapy
  • Neuromodulation
  • Injections 

Dr. Friedman will tailor a treatment plan to your needs.
