Whiplash in auto accidents
The majority of people do not realize the extent of injuries that an auto accident can cause. Many studies have shown an accident that causes no, or minimal property damage can still result in injury. That’s why its very important to see a doctor who treats these types of issues.
Our Accident Doctors sees that people often misunderstand whiplash. We will discuss what whiplash is, the causes of it, and any help that we can provide.
What is whiplash?
Whiplash is caused by a sudden force that jolts your body. Whiplash most commonly occurs when a vehicle rear-ends your car while you are seated. This happens so rapidly that your body doesn’t have enough time to respond. Your car will move forward before you even have a chance to react. The body is pushed down into the seat. The neck is heavy, and the head is enclosed. While your body continues being pushed downward, you are delayed in reacting.
As far as your seatbelt permits, you then turn the head in a new direction. After your head reaches its maximum forward movement, it is forced to move the other way as a reaction. Because your neck isn’t restrained by a seatbelt, you will be jolted backwards and forwards beyond what is normal. This “whipping”, or “slapping” action, can cause severe neck damage.
Delayed Symptoms
Whiplash symptoms may appear days or even weeks after the accident. Headaches, neck discomfort, or loss of motion are all symptoms of whiplash. Symptoms of whiplash may take several days to appear because inflammation can occur over time. When the ligaments in your neck become damaged, the muscles will tighten to protect any injured areas. The muscles tighten when the neck ligaments are injured.
After a short time, the tissue is damaged and releases chemicals. These chemicals attach Fibroblasts – tiny cells – to the wound. These cells multiply and create fibrin. This material looks like a scab. Fibrin assists in repair and reconstruction. During this period, it’s important to maintain normal ranges and alignment of the spine. This can result in scarring that will restrict the mobility of this area. This can result in spinal degeneration.

FAQ some of our patients want to know about
Do I first need to consult with an attorney?
NO. We must first evaluate your injury and determine the severity of it. Your medical care cannot be delayed. You should see a doctor after an accident to assist you with accessing your injuries, then we can worry about getting an attorney.
What happens when I have only minor car damage?
Minor damage to your car does not mean there is no danger. A study found that vehicles traveling under 5 mph could cause injuries, even with minimal or no damage to the cars involved. To ensure you do not have hidden injuries, see an accident doctor after a collision.
What if you require an orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon?
We collaborate with other local medical professionals, including neurologists and orthopedists, to provide you with additional care. This care will be covered under an attorneys lien.

No. Auto insurance will be billed if available. This is done by Pip. No fault and med-pay. Georgia does not have “no-fault”, however many people from states that do are moving here.
