About Whiplash Injuries
Whiplash is a neck injury that results from a forceful and quick back and forward movement which leads to an abnormal S-shape in the cervical spine. This motion damages soft tissues such as facet capsules, muscles, and ligaments.
Whiplash is a common injury in a rear-end motor vehicle accident but can also occur due to a slip or fall.
Whiplash injuries are often referred to as sprain and/or strain injuries. These types of injuries routinely resolve over time, but some people can experience chronic pain as a result.
People who have previously experienced whiplash and/or who suffer from pre-existing back or neck pain are more likely to experience chronic pain.
Symptoms of Whiplash
Symptoms of whiplash injuries include neck pain, stiffness, increased pain with movement, decreased range of motion, headaches originating from the base of the skull, and tenderness.
Diagnosis of Whiplash
Whiplash injuries are diagnosed on physical examination. These injuries are not readily apparent on imaging studies such as X-Rays, CT scans, or MRIs.
Those tests may be ordered, however, to make sure the victim does not have other conditions that could exacerbate the soft tissue injuries or to rule out more significant injuries.
Whiplash & Insurance Adjusters
Insurance adjusters typically try to minimize whiplash injuries even though they can often lead to months of pain and discomfort or even chronic pain. Our firm routinely obtains full insurance policy limits even on whiplash cases.
