What is Whiplash and How Do I Know I Have it?

Whiplash is a neck injury that affects the muscles, tendons and ligaments in your neck. It is caused by a sudden jerking movement of the neck side to side and/or backwards and forwards.

It is a common injury type in a road traffic accident but can also occur in other types of accidents. It can take from a few hours to a few days to set in and take effect on you. The typical symptoms of whiplash are:

> Stiff Neck/Sore neck/pain

> Discomfort and/or lack of movement in the neck when trying to move your head left to right

> Headaches and/or Dizzyness.

In a road traffic accident, whiplash happens when a driver bumps into the back of another vehicle. It is nearly always the driver who bumped into the back of the other vehicle’s fault and it is the driver who got bumped that will sustain a whiplash injury.

The severity depends on a variety of factors such as the speed of the impact, the car safety features, whether a seatbelt was being worn or not and other such factors.
