Whiplash can follow even a fender-bender, and symptoms sometimes surface a day or two later. If your neck feels stiff, sore or tight after a collision or fall in Flower Mound, Palmercare Chiropractic Flower Mound can examine how your neck is moving and begin a gentle recovery plan with Dr. Madison Molitor.
Whiplash happens when the head is thrown rapidly forward and back, straining the muscles, ligaments and joints of the neck. Auto accidents are the most common cause, but sports collisions and falls can do the same.
The Cleveland Clinic outlines symptoms, diagnosis and recovery in its guide to whiplash. Seek immediate care for severe pain, numbness, weakness, loss of consciousness or other alarming symptoms after trauma.
Typical whiplash symptoms include:
Dr. Molitor begins with a careful history of the incident and a gentle exam of your neck, shoulders and spine. If imaging or medical evaluation is warranted, she will arrange or recommend it before care begins.
