How Head Pain Is Caused by Auto Injury and How Dr. Six Can Help You

There are many different kinds of headache. Headache that's caused by a car crash, though, typically begins as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the neck. In a collision, the neck muscles can be damaged, which causes swelling and pain. These kinds of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the temple.

Another frequent cause of pain after a collision that we see in our Great Falls office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that start in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is quite common after a crash, and it's important to get therapy for this type of problem to avoid the development of scar tissue.
