Whiplash is an injury most commonly associated with motor vehicle accidents. When your car is hit in the rear, your neck can be injured by the sudden jolt forwards. Symptoms might not be felt until days after the accident takes place, but may include pain and aching in the neck and shoulders, ‘pins and needles’ in the arms and legs, and headaches.
The severity of whiplash injuries can range from mild discomfort through to excruciating pain. If you suffer a whiplash injury as a result of a road accident which wasn’t your fault, and the whiplash has affected your day-to-day life, you should contact ClaimsGuru.org.uk as soon as possible in order to pursue a whiplash claim.
