Find Relief from Whiplash
Whiplash is a soft tissue injury to the neck. It’s also called neck sprain or neck strain.
The cause is typically an abrupt, jarring motion to the neck, commonly a result of a car accident. Whiplash also can include injury to invertebrate joints, discs, ligaments, muscles and nerve roots.
Neck stiffness can be a sign of damage to the facet joint. Cervicogenic headaches are common in whiplash patients, often a result of referred pain from injured nerves. Dizziness can be caused by injury to the upper spine that affects the information being transmitted to your brain, including your eyes and inner ear. Dizziness can also be caused by spasms in the neck muscles. Back pain may stem from damage to the upper back (thoracic spine). Whiplash patients also might experience damage to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which results in popping or cracking of the jaw, pain with chewing or headaches.
