Dealing with Whiplash Injuries
Whiplash is a relatively common injury that may be sustained as the result of a car accident. Depending on the severity of the injury, the length of the subsequent recovery process can take a matter of months or even leave someone with permanent pain. The personal injury attorneys at Ravid & Associates, P.C. help whiplash victims whose injuries were caused by someone else’s irresponsible behavior recover financial compensation for their pain and suffering.
Symptoms of Whiplash
If you have been diagnosed with whiplash after a car accident, your doctor may then refer you to a chiropractor or a physical therapist. These medical professionals will seek to alleviate the pain of your injuries as well as help you regain full range of motion through their treatment plans. Common symptoms of whiplash injuries that may need to be addressed through medical treatment are:
- Neck pain or stiffness
- Increased pain when you turn your head
- Limited range of motion
- Headaches
- Tingling or numbness in the arms or fingers
- Blurred vision
- Difficulty concentrating
Most whiplash injuries will not result in death or paralysis; however, severe cases can result in permanent damage as well as significant and chronic pain. It is important that you seek legal action if your whiplash injury was caused by the actions of a negligent driver.
