Whiplash is a common injury caused by the sudden jerking of the head back and forth, for example in rear end car accident. Although many whiplash injuries heal within a few weeks, some can be long-lasting and can continue to cause pain and restriction for a long time. If you have neck pain after a car accident, whether as a driver or passenger, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries.
Some of the common symptoms of whiplash include neck pain, neck stiffness, shoulder pain, upper back pain and headaches. If you experience any of these symptoms after a car accident, it’s important to see your doctor and get medical advice. This will not only help to manage your pain and prevent further damage, but it will also provide crucial evidence for your compensation claim.
