Whiplash

Whiplash is a particularly nasty condition. In fact, whiplash describes several types of condition caused by sudden movement of the head in any direction. The effects of a whiplash injury are not always immediately apparent, as symptoms can take up to twelve hours to develop. Because of this, accident victims ought to exercise: it is usually sensible not to confirm or deny the existence of an injury until at least the next day.

Whiplash occurs when the overstretched muscles, tendons or ligaments of the neck suffer damage. In most cases, symptoms of whiplash last no longer than a few days or weeks. In severe cases, however, symptoms such as dizziness, acute pain, numbness, stiffness and immobility can last for several months or even years. Whiplash sufferers might also experience memory loss, vertigo, tinnitus, lower back pain, pins and needles, anxiety and depression.
