10 Symptoms of Whiplash
Symptom #2: Neck Pain
Neck pain is another whiplash symptom with varying severity depending on the extent and location of the injury. Mild pain localized in one area can be indicative of a minor whiplash injury, while severe pain can indicate that the injury affects a more extensive area.
Whiplash pain may also radiate from one area of the neck to another or down into the shoulder or back. In some cases, the pain may also affect the arm, hands and even the fingers. It is worth noting that besides affecting soft tissues, whiplash injury may also involve ligaments, bones and nerves.
