When someone escapes a car accident without any visible physical injuries, their friends and family may count their blessings.
However, many individuals who suffer a road traffic accident come away with a whiplash injury, which may be ‘invisible' but can affect a person's quality of life just as much as any visible injuries.
Often the victims of a whiplash neck injury do not suffer any symptoms for the first six to twelve hours after the accident.
Even after they begin to suffer from symptoms such as a sore, stiff or swollen neck, the pain may get gradually worse over the next few days before the full seriousness of their injury becomes clear.
Some suffers can experience dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, trouble sleeping, blurred vision, memory loss, and trouble swallowing, amongst other symptoms.
The severity of the symptoms will depend on how forcefully their neck was moved during the impact of the collision, and other personal factors such as the person's weight, age, and any underlying health problems.
Some individuals will only suffer pain and other symptoms for a few weeks or months, but others may have to deal with their symptoms for years before they finally fade.
Choosing the right treatment for the type of whiplash injury and the individual, can greatly improve the speed at which they recover. A GP or doctor should be able to advise them how to best go about easing their pain and promoting neck healing.
A whiplash injury lawyer can help the victim of a non-fault accident claim the compensation they deserve for the pain, suffering, and any lost earnings.
If you have suffered a neck injury in a road accident which was not your fault, or only partly your fault, you may be eligible to make a claim.
