- Melanie from Brooklyn, NY
What Happened?
On October 4, 2023, Melanie was driving with her dog to pick up a friend for a trip to the dog park in Brooklyn, NY. After picking up her friend, they continued their journey and stopped at the intersection of East 19th Street and Dorchester Road. While Melanie was stopped at a stop sign, waiting to proceed, another vehicle failed to stop and rear-ended her car. To make matters worse, the other driver fled the accident scene. Initially, the shock of the situation kept Melanie from realizing the extent of her injuries, and she didn’t seek immediate medical attention. However, when her pain worsened over the next few days, she went to the emergency room, where she was evaluated, treated, and sent home with a prescription for pain medication.
As a result of the collision, Melanie suffered back injuries. Although she initially experienced neck pain, it resolved soon after the incident. Her primary complaint was intermittent lower-to-mid back pain, which intensified with prolonged standing or changes in position. Although Melanie did not hit her head during the accident, she developed headaches caused by whiplash. Fortunately, conservative treatment significantly reduced her pain, and surgical intervention was not necessary.
