Rehabilitation treatment for traffic accident aftereffects experienced at Baegotjoeun Rehabilitation Medicine Department in Siheung City

After my car accident, my ankle and knee pain had been improving for a while, but recently, swelling has returned and I've been experiencing pain when going up and down stairs, so I visited a rehabilitation clinic. Since I'd injured these areas before, I was worried that my condition might have worsened. From the initial consultation, the doctor thoroughly asked me about the progress of the accident and my recovery, which gave me confidence.
I checked the current condition of my joints through X-rays and ultrasound examinations, and they explained that while there were no major structural problems, inflammation in the ligaments and soft tissues had returned as a result of the accident. So, I underwent a gradual course of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, ultrasound physical therapy, and heat therapy, along with rehabilitation exercise therapy that supported both my knees and ankles. They continuously monitored my pain intensity throughout the treatment, so I was able to receive it without overdoing it. The exercise therapy was especially helpful, as they even explained in detail how to do it at home.
After several treatments, the swelling had noticeably decreased, and the stiffness I felt when walking or standing for long periods had also significantly decreased. What I liked about this hospital was that they didn't simply repeat physical therapy; they explained the cause of the pain and even considered ways to prevent it from happening again. I especially recommend it to anyone struggling with the aftereffects of a car accident.
