What is a Whiplash Injury?
Whiplash is caused when a person receives a sudden forward shunt to their body, which injures the muscles, ligaments and tendons or other soft tissues in the neck because the head has not moved forward with the body at the same time. Whiplash injuries typically occur in road traffic accidents, in particular where the victim’s vehicle has been hit from the rear. However it’s also possible to suffer a whiplash injury from a slip and trip accident or accident at work.

How Do I know If I Have Got Whiplash?
If you’ve had an accident and you’re suffering from pain and restriction of movement in your neck area and you’ve got pains in your shoulders and arms then the chances are you’re suffering from whiplash. More severe forms of whiplash can cause nausea, pins and needles in the arms and hands. Symptoms normally set in 24 hours or so after the accident so you may not realise you’re suffering from a whiplash injury until a day or so after the accident. It’s not easy to estimate immediately how badly injured a person is from a whiplash injury following an accident and it may take several weeks or months before an informed opinion can be obtained from a suitably qualified medical expert as to how long it will be before the full effects of the whiplash go away.

How To Treat Whiplash
There are varying opinions on the best way to treat a whiplash type of injury. Some medical experts recommend resting and restriction of movement of the neck and often prescribe a cervical collar to be worn whilst others recommend the neck be kept mobile or as mobile as possible and then undertake a series of gentle exercises to prevent the neck from stiffening up. You really need to be advised in the first instance by your own doctor as to how best to alleviate the pain you’re suffering following a whiplash injury although when your solicitor refers you to another medical expert to give a medico-legal opinion on your injuries that medical expert may well recommend alternative treatment.
