The Seriousness of Auto Accidents

After an auto accident, you may suffer from a variety of different pains and discomforts. It can occasionally take time to set in, but the effects of an accident can affect you for years to come if they’re not promptly addressed.

Some of the complaints may include:

  • Dizziness
  • Headaches
  • Low Back Pain
  • Mid Back Pain
  • Neck Pain
  • Radiating Pain in the Arms, Hands, and Legs
  • Signs of Concussion
  • Whiplash

 

Whiplash in Boardman, OH

One of the most common injuries associated with car accidents is whiplash injuries. Whiplash refers to a group of injuries that occur due to the head’s sudden, violent whipping motion in an accident. The whip can happen in any direction – back-forward, forward-back, side-side, or anything in between. Various injuries can result, including damage to the supporting muscles, ligaments, and other connective tissues in the neck and upper back. In addition, a host of related symptoms can be attributed to the injuries to these areas and to the untrained eye, which can appear utterly unconnected to the original trauma.

An auto accident should always be taken seriously, no matter how harmless it may at first appear, because of the areas of the body that it can affect. However, it should also be remembered that the effects of whiplash may take weeks or months to fully manifest; thus, it cannot be assumed that no injuries exist just because no symptoms are felt immediately following the accident.
