A review of post-accident treatment at Samsung Seoul Orthopedic Clinic in Siheung City.

After the car accident, I was told I wasn't seriously injured, so I didn't take it seriously. However, as time passed, the pain from my lower back to my shoulder persisted, and I ended up seeing an orthopedic surgeon again. In particular, when I woke up in the morning, my lower back was stiff, and a pulling sensation was felt all the way down to my shoulder, making daily life difficult. From the first appointment, I was thoroughly questioned about the circumstances of the accident, when the pain started, and even the awkward postures I was experiencing. This gave me a sense of trust.
Through X-rays and ultrasounds, I was told that it wasn't simple muscle pain, but rather muscle and ligament strain caused by the aftereffects of an accident. The accompanying diagrams explained the pain, making it easy to understand. Treatment involved a combination of medication, physical therapy, and manual therapy. The manual therapy, in particular, focused on balancing the area connecting my waist and shoulders, rather than simply applying pressure. Afterward, I felt noticeably lighter.
With each treatment, the pain intensity gradually decreased, and after about two weeks, the number of nighttime awakenings also decreased. The biggest difference from other hospitals was that, rather than simply recommending long-term treatment, they adjusted the frequency based on my recovery. They offered only the right treatment for my current condition, without any unnecessary tests or excessive procedures, so I was able to visit without any pressure.
