Millions of Americans seek the assistance of chiropractors each year to treat their aches and pains. Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine whose practitioners specialize in joint manipulation and realignment. Many chiropractic procedures involve manipulation of sensitive areas, such as the neck and spine. If a chiropractor makes a mistake, this can be chiropractic malpractice.
Due to the sensitive nature of the areas chiropractors manipulate, there is a risk of serious injury or even death in the most basic of procedures. If you have lost a loved one because of a chiropractic mistake, contact the Pennsylvania chiropractic malpractice lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C. at 888-979-7298 to begin seeking justice.
Chiropractic Malpractice and Consequences
The biggest risk involved with chiropractic procedures is the manipulation of the spine. The spine is a sensitive area that is responsible for many of the functions that humans are capable of performing. When the spine is manipulated, there is the chance that complications may arise. Different individuals may be more sensitive to manipulation, which may have damaging effects. Patients may suffer paralysis or strokes when chiropractic procedures are administered incorrectly.
Improperly performed chiropractic manipulation can lead to broken bones, herniated discs, or other serious problems that can lead to substantial and permanent pain. Chiropractic malpractice can lead to ailments such as paralysis and strokes, which may lead to death either in the short term or long term. In either case, the chiropractor who adjusted the victim may be liable for that individual’s serious injury or death, and the victim’s family may be entitled to financial compensation for their loss.
