Understanding Whiplash Injuries

Whiplash is a common injury that occurs when the neck and head are suddenly jerked forward and backward, typically during motor vehicle accidents. The rapid movements can cause the muscles and ligaments in the neck to stretch and tear, leading to a range of debilitating symptoms.

Common Symptoms of Whiplash

  • Neck Pain and Stiffness
  • Headaches, Most Often at the Base of the Skull
  • Dizziness
  • Blurred Vision
  • Constant Weariness
  • Shoulder Pain and Stiffness
  • Back Pain
