Whiplash is a trauma injury to the neck typically caused by the forces experienced in a car accident, fall or blow to the head.  It involves the rapid movement sideways, forwards or backwards of the head and neck resulting in an over extension of the tendons and ligaments and damage to the tissues in the neck.  The effects of whiplash are not always immediate and can take a day or two before they are experienced.  Whiplash usually causes tenderness, swelling and pain in the neck, reduced movement in the neck and it can lead to headaches.  It can take several months for people to recover from mild whiplash and it may lead to longer-term neck and back problems. Symptoms The following symptoms are commonly associated with whiplash:  Pain in the neck and back Muscle spasms Numbness or tingling in the hands and arms Headaches Dizziness, blurred vision and vertigo Tinnitus Difficulty swallowingChiropractic Treatments for Whiplash Your  plan depends on the severity of your injury.
