Whiplash

Whiplash: Often Caused From a Sudden Jolt or Distortion to the Neck

Whiplash can be caused by several activities. More often than not, a whiplash injury may occur in activities that include moving the neck in an intense fashion such as being in a car accident, sport collision, falling down, and many others. Varying amounts of whiplash pain in the neck, back and/or other related areas of the body may ensue from a car accident or other event prompting whiplash.
