This blog is intended to educate the people of Miami, FL about the manifestations, symptoms, and signs of the Whiplash Effect following a Miami car accident. Whiplash is one of the most common types injuries sustained from a car accident. The head goes through a sudden acceleration-deceleration motion, which puts a great amount of stress on the neck and upper back anatomy. Muscles, tendons, and ligaments all are effected and can become inflamed and damaged. In Miami-Dade county alone, there are approximately 120 Miami car accidents every single day. Unfortunately, that's a lot of whiplash.
A study by Bismil and Bismil reported, out of 1025 people who experienced whiplash, that the most common symptoms are neck pain, reduced cervical range of motion, and myofascial-entheseal dysfunction. Myofascial-entheseal dysfunction are trigger points in the muscle, tendons, or ligaments, which cause pain and restrict normal movement. This dysfunction has proven effective by the utilization of Trigger Point Therapy. This therapy is common practice at the Miami Car Accident Clinic, as it gets excellent results in patients suffering from whiplash symptoms.
Other common symptoms of whiplash include:
- Headache (usually at the base of skull)
- Neck stiffness
- Arm pain
- Fatigue
- Jaw pain
- Dizziness
- Back pain
