Pedestrian v. Automobile accident, Traumatic Brain Injury, Policy Limits.
Coral Springs Whiplash Injury Attorney
When a car is impacted during an accident, the driver and/or passengers’ necks may be exposed to extreme snapping and jerking which resembles the motion of a whip, which gives the injury the name “whiplash”. This type of injury is one of the most common in a car accident, ranging from moderate to severe. Factors that may influence the severity of the injury include height, seating position, head position, vehicle size, and safety restraint positions.
Victims of whiplash should immediately seek medical assistance as whiplash may last for several months. Some instances have even been known to result in chronic pain if muscles and bones have been permanently damaged.
Symptoms of Whiplash
Those who were in a car accident may not feel pain immediately, as whiplash symptoms may not develop for up to 24 hours after the accident.
Here are some of the common symptoms:
- Neck pain or stiffness
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Fatigue
- Blurred vision
- Ringing in the ears
Some people will also have difficulty concentrating or memory problems.
