Neck Injury

Whiplash is the most common type of soft tissue injury. It’s a unique injury that occurs most often to drivers and passengers involved in auto accidents, when the force from the impact causes the head to snap violently. Because the term “whiplash” has developed something of a negative connotation through the years, today the injury is commonly referred to as cervical sprain, cervical strain, or hyperextension injury. No matter its name, a crash doesn’t need to happen at high speed for a whiplash injury to result. Even at low speeds, the unexpected impact can cause injury to various parts of the neck. However, such an injury can occur in any situation where a sudden back and forth “whipping” movement occurs in the neck area, including slips, falls, and blows to the head from an assault.
