Relief Starts With Understanding the Injury
Pain after a fall or trauma can come from the muscles, joints, spine, nerves, or soft tissues. Care starts with listening to what happened, reviewing your symptoms, and helping identify what may be driving the pain.
Common Issues We Evaluate
Pain after a fall, accident, or injury can come from several different sources. These are some of the common issues we evaluate at Enid Pain & Spine.
Back or Spine Pain
Falls or sudden injuries can strain the spine, muscles, joints, or nearby nerves.
Hip or SI Joint Pain
Trauma can irritate the hip or sacroiliac joint and cause pain with walking or standing.
Knee or Joint Pain
A fall or impact can lead to joint pain, swelling, stiffness, or limited movement.
Wrist or Shoulder Pain
Trying to catch yourself during a fall can sometimes lead to wrist, hand, shoulder, or arm pain.
Nerve Irritation
Injuries can sometimes irritate nerves and cause burning, tingling, numbness, or shooting pain.
Muscle Strain
Sudden movement or impact can strain muscles and cause tightness, aching, or spasms.
Compression Fractures
Older adults or patients with osteoporosis may be at higher risk for painful spine fractures after a fall.
Ongoing Pain After Injury
Pain that does not improve after a fall or accident may need a closer evaluation.
Symptoms
Pain after a fall or trauma can feel different depending on the area injured. Some patients notice soreness and stiffness, while others feel sharp, radiating, or nerve-like pain.
Our Approach to Pain After Falls or Trauma
We begin with a careful evaluation to better understand what happened, where your pain is located, and what may be contributing to your symptoms. Dr. Chad Owens and the Enid Pain & Spine care team review your history, pain pattern, and previous care to help build a personalized plan focused on reducing pain, improving function, and helping you move with more confidence.
When to Schedule an Appointment
If pain after a fall or injury is affecting your sleep, walking, movement, work, or daily life, it may be time to get answers. You do not need to know the exact cause before scheduling.
