Chiropractic Malpractice
While chiropractors traditionally take a more holistic approach to treating patients than the mainstream medical profession, chiropractors can still be held liable for chiropractic malpractice. Chiropractic malpractice occurs when a chiropractor departs from standard treatment protocols, and as a result, a patient is injured. The three primary types of chiropractic malpractice include:
- failure to diagnose conditions that require timely medical attention
- injuries caused by manipulation of body parts that may have been weakened by disease or previous trauma
- failure to obtain informed consent
Chiropractic Malpractice Injuries
Injuries from chiropractic malpractice may occur when an underlying condition is aggravated or when a procedure is executed incorrectly. Some of the injuries and conditions that can result from chiropractic malpractice include:
- stroke
- ruptured disc
- neck injury
- torn ligament
- cracked vertebrae
- nerve or muscle damage
- chronic pain
- loss of dexterity
- loss of mobility
- loss of feeling in extremities, tingling, shooting pain
