The result of more cars on the road than ever before means the number of accidents has increased. The number of neck injuries has grown as well. The neck pain associated with whiplash can range from minor to significant. While whiplash often happens due to car accidents, it can also occur because of a fall or sports-related injury.
Whiplash creates a hyperextension of the cervical spine. It’s more common when a driver has a rear-end collision than in other types of crashes. This type of neck injury can damage both your upper and lower cervical spine. The seriousness of your symptoms depends on the velocity of the impact. The size of the car that hit you also plays a factor in your injury. Age-related disc degeneration in your neck can make this trauma to the spine even more severe.
Anytime you have an automobile accident, it creates stress. The capable team with the Spine & Rehab Group provides excellent treatment after a definitive diagnosis. Dr. Amr Hosny and his team of spine experts help reduce the stress in your neck by offering exceptional whiplash injury treatment.

To meet your individual needs, your specialist records a thorough assessment and self-history. Your spine doctor confirms a diagnosis and the level of the injury with imaging tests. Additionally, you may need support for the psychological trauma you experienced to prevent consequences such as:
Sometimes, the strain placed on your neck due to whiplash can cause a concussion. A concussion is dangerous and needs immediate medical attention. Signs you may have a concussion include:
