DUI Injury Victim Resources (Part B)

Specialized treatments include wound care, women's health, vestibular rehabilitation, and decongestive lymphatic drainage.

Cold and ice are used to reduce pain and inflammation sustained from injuries.

Heat is used to help heal the muscles injured and soften tissue by increasing the bloods circulation.

Hydrotherapy is a common method that is used to help heal after a DUI accident. Most hydrotherapy involves mild exercises in a swimming pool.

Another form of common physical treatment for injuries from a DUI car accident is ultrasound therapy, which uses high-pitched sound waves to ease muscle spasms and relieve pain and inflammation.

Lastly, electrical stimulation, the use of an electrical current to stimulate and contract the muscles, is another way to relieve pain. Electrical stimulation can be used to scramble the pain signals, thereby reducing your pain. If you are in physical therapy for your DUI accident injuries, your therapist may use one or two of these methods, or all of them at different times.

DUI Accident Disability

If your injuries are severe enough that you are disabled, you will want to file for disability through the Social Security Administration. The article "How to File a Disability Claim," provides simple and easy to follow steps for filing a claim.

The Social Security Administration also offers a wealth of information on their website regarding disability claims. Also, if you have disability insurance through your employer or through AFLAC, you will want to file for their benefits too.

Hopefully your injuries will not have you disabled for too long and with medical treatment and/or physical therapy, you'll recover quickly.

DUI Accident Personal Injury Attorney

Another avenue to explore when you are in this situation is hiring an experienced personal injury attorney to advise you of your rights in your case. If you or your loved one has been injured in a drunk driving accident you should contact a personal injury attorney immediately to learn about your rights and determine liability.

When you are interviewing personal injury lawyers ask critical questions, like: how long have you been practicing; what is the largest settlement or verdict you've obtained, and do you have experience with Florida DUI accidents?
