AP News carried Dr. Kalay’s advice for drivers in Yuba City, Marysville, Plumas Lake and Live Oak ahead of Thanksgiving travel: get an auto injury exam within 72 hours of any collision. Adrenaline and stress hormones can block pain at the scene, and while broken bones show right away, strained muscles, ligaments and nerves often don’t. The exam, whiplash care and gentle adjustments can start now. Only heavy lifting and contact sports should wait until a provider clears them.
