Important Points
-- " WHIPLASH " AUTO INJURIES ARE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER INJURIES --
Point #1 Whiplash injuries have nothing to do with having "broken bones"...or....bleeding. In other words, just because there was NO BLOOD in your car....that does NOT mean you weren't INJURED from your car accident.
Point #2 PAIN and other SYMPTOMS from your car accident are not caused from having "broken bones"...or... just a "bad DISC". To properly treat a patient who has suffered a WHIPLASH injury from a car accident----it's not enough to treat just the PAIN. There is also nerve damage, soft tissue damage, muscle spasm, inflammation, scar tissue, and a loss of body function... which all affect a person's normal Activities of Daily Living----ie. BENDING, LIFTING, ABILITY TO TURN YOUR NECK, ABILITY TO DRESS OR BATHE, ABILITY TO DO HOUSEWORK, ABILITY TO DO YOUR JOB, ABILITY TO DRIVE A CAR, and your ABILITY TO LEAD A NORMAL LIFE. To rehabilitate a "whiplash" type injury from an auto accident----it's not about ONLY treating your PAIN. That alone will not fix your problem.
Point #3 A "whiplash" injury has nothing to do with just having a "bad" DISC in your neck and/or back.
Point #4 A "whiplash" injury involves PINCHED NERVES, NUMBNESS, INFLAMMATION, SCAR TISSUE, FACET CAPSULE TEARING & JAMMING, TISSUE SWELLING, BIOMECHANICAL JOINT DYSFUNCTION, LIGAMENT STRETCHING & TEARING, AND MUSCLE SPASMS with MUSCLE GUARDING---Whiplash is NOT related to having broken bones and/or bleeding.
Point #5 Symptoms usually do not show up until WEEKS...or....even MONTHS after your accident. This is due to the slow BUILD UP of scar tissue and tissue inflammation over time (weeks or months).
Point #6 Hospitals do not treat "whiplash" injuries. They only treat for broken bones and bleeding--which are not seen in a typical "whiplash" type injury. They may prescribe a muscle relaxer and then refer you for therapy, however, a therapy clinic will NOT treat your pinched nerves, scar tissue, inflammation, facet joint damage, muscle spasm, or spinal joint dysfunction---caused from your auto accident.
