This is a difficult question. It depends on the type and degree of injury. You need to get an evaluation from your doctor first.

Depends on what is injured (? Muscle, tendon,nerve,disc,etc.) Chiropractors are not all the same in education and experience.Overall some can be helpful in pain control for problems without major tissue damage.

Most medical providers don't "fix" injuries but provide treatment and education in an attempt to help the patient resolve an injury. Has chiropractors specialize in spinal complaints, such as back pain, a chiropractor should be your first choice of provider to see when you have back pain.
