Whiplash is a soft tissue injury to the neck, which is often called a neck sprain or neck strain. Whiplash is usually caused by a sudden extension and flexion of neck muscles and vertebrae in the neck. Car accidents and other motor vehicle accidents are a major cause of whiplash because of the sudden jerking forward/backward motion the neck experiences.
Symptoms from whiplash include neck pain, stiffness, injuries to other muscles and ligaments, headache, dizziness, burning, prickling, shoulder pain, and back pain. Less commonly, psychological symptoms are associated with whiplash, such as memory loss, trouble concentrating, nervousness, irritability, trouble sleeping, fatigue, and depression.
