When in a car accident an injury to the neck, such as whiplash can occur at speeds as low as 7 ½ MPH; and the risk greatly increases when the crash impacts at 20mphs.
Collisions at any speed greater than that, greatly increases the potential for injury.
Whiplash is an injury that occurs when the head moves in one direction then “whips” back to its original position.
This can cause injury to muscle, ligaments or cervical discs.
Often times the victim doesn’t feel neck pain immediately, it could take hours to days.
A correct diagnosis with treatment as soon as possible is important to limit the damage.
