Being struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian can cause serious injuries — even at low speeds. If this happens, getting evaluated by a San Diego pedestrian accident chiropractor right away is critical for both your recovery and your documentation.
At San Diego Auto Injury Center, we treat pedestrian accident injuries across San Diego County. We offer bilingual care and accept liens, MedPay, and qualifying insurance cases with no upfront cost.
Why Pedestrian Accidents Cause Severe Injuries
Unlike drivers, pedestrians have no protection during impact. This often leads to:
- Full-body impact trauma
- Joint misalignment from falling
- Direct spinal compression
- Soft tissue damage
- Head, neck, and back injuries
We frequently treat full-body injuries after pedestrian accidents.
For general safety information, review this overview.
Common Injuries After Being Hit by a Car
Pedestrian injuries can affect multiple areas at once.
Common conditions include:
- Neck and back injuries
- Hip and pelvic misalignment
- Knee or ankle injuries
- Shoulder trauma
- Nerve irritation causing numbness or tingling
Because the body absorbs direct force, injuries are often more complex than standard car accidents.
