What Are Some Common Injuries That Can Result From Auto Accidents?

The sudden jolt from a car accident can cause a myriad of injuries including:

  • Whiplash
  • Neck pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Upper and/or lower back pain
  • Tingling or numbness in extremities
  • Headaches
  • Overall body stiffness or soreness
  • Lack of energy

What Exactly Is Whiplash?

Whiplash is a personal injury to your neck muscles when the impact causes your head to be thrown forward and backward rapidly. The impact on the soft tissue in your neck may cause muscle, tendon, or ligament damage. The pain may be immediate or may take days to appear.

Why Might Some of My Symptoms Be Delayed?

When you are involved in a wreck, adrenaline and endorphins can be released. These help block the pain and cause your body to ignore the symptoms. It is not until the adrenaline and endorphins wear off that pain may appear. Symptoms may take hours, or even days, to appear after a traumatic event such as a car accident.

I Don’t Think I Have Whiplash, But I Do Have A Stiff Neck — What Could This Be?

You may have suffered whiplash and not know it. Often, auto accident victims think they just have a sore or stiff neck and figure it will go away. Untreated whiplash can be dangerous and lead to long-term pain if not treated. If you are experiencing any neck issues, come see our team at Weig Chiropractic Center.
