Whiplash and Soft Tissue Injuries – What this means for your Car Accident Case.
Monday, June 22, 2009 by Allen P. Wilkinson
Many people are skeptical of claims for whiplash—until they are the victims of an injury that snaps their head and shoulders back and forth.. When they wake up the next day or two, they will feel extremely sore and stiff in their neck, upper back, and shoulders and may not make it to work or school.
Whiplash involves serious “soft-tissue” injuries to the tendons, ligaments, and muscles that support the neck, head, and back. Left untreated, a whiplash injury can cause tremendous pain and loss of range of motion for an extended period of time. You will need to be checked out by a doctor – preferably an orthopedic surgeon – to ensure that no bones were broken or displaced by the impact and that the injuries are indeed limited to the soft tissue in the neck, shoulders, and back area. You will most likely be put on a regimen of physical therapy to treat your injuries.
