Automobile Injuries
Car accidents can cause hyperflexion and extension injuries, commonly known as "Whiplash." This injury occurs when the head and neck are violently thrown in one direction due to the impact, and then muscles react to "whip" it back in the opposite direction. While the neck usually suffers the most, any part of the spine can be affected. Muscles, tendons, vertebral discs, ligaments, and other soft tissues are often damaged or injured during an automobile accident.
Initially, symptoms may not seem severe, with a sore or stiff neck followed by headaches being typical. However, pain or numbness in the arms and hands, dizziness, ringing in the ears, and blurred vision may occur. Severe whiplash can also cause a concussion, where the brain is slammed against the inside of the skull. Concussion symptoms may include mood swings, restlessness, anxiety, depression, and headaches lasting hours or even days after the accident.
After any automobile accident, seeking medical attention is crucial to ensure no severe injuries that can cause later symptoms or future health issues. Don't underestimate the impact of a car accident on your body. Seeking medical attention right after an accident can help prevent lifelong health problems.
