NECK INJURY LAW FAQ
1. What is whiplash?
Whiplash refers to an injury to the neck, head and shoulders after
being
subjected to a snapping motion, either forward and back or side to
side.
These neck injuries are frequently caused by traffic accidents.
2. Why is whiplash so common in car accidents? The main reason is that a vehicle headrest on the back of a seat limits the range of extension in your neck.
3. What are the symptoms of a whiplash injury? The initial symptom is pain and soreness in the neck area.
4. I was in a car accident this morning, but I don’t have any discomfort. Can I assume I don’t have whiplash? No, because immediately after a whiplash accident victims are often unaware that they have been injured. You may be experiencing only slight discomfort and/or stiffness in your neck. Whiplash usually doesn’t become apparent for at least 12 to 24 hours after the accident.
5. If whiplash is usually only an injury to the soft tissues, why is my doctor taking an x-ray? This is done to rule out more serious spinal injuries. Injuries such as whiplash are not usually seen on an x-ray.
6. How long will my symptoms last? They should subside within 2-4 weeks. If yours persists, consult your physician for further evaluation.
7. Can I do anything to prevent this type of injury? It is not completely avoidable, but checking your head restraint is a good precautionary measure. Head restraints should be high enough so that they're directly behind and very close to the back of your head. Some vehicles have headrests that are very low and this could make you susceptible to this type of injury.
