After an accident, whiplash generally appears within 24 hours. Discover several common whiplash symptoms or contact us today.

Even a low-speed car accident can cause neck pain. The abrupt, jarring impact pushes your head backward, then forward, creating whiplash. Whiplash generally appears within 24 hours and can include a range of symptoms:

• Headaches near the base of your skill
• Dizziness or blurred vision
• Fatigue
• Difficulty focusing or sleeping (in severe cases)
• Ringing ears (in severe cases)

If you’ve recently been in a rear-end collision and are experiencing prolonged pain in your neck and upper back, I invite you to schedule a consultation and together we can pinpoint the source of your pain.
