WHIPLASH INJURIES & CERVICAL DISC STRAIN SPRAIN INJURIES FROM AUTO ACCIDENTS

In California, the most common causes of whiplash and cervical nerve damage are from car accidents, auto vs. auto accidents, and industrial transportation accidents, involving trucks and delivery vans and vehicles. In a car accident where one automobile is struck from behind by another, “rear-ended”, a whiplash injury with resulting neck pain is almost always sustained if the motor vehicle accident collision occurred with any significant amount of force. Painful whiplash injuries often result from traffic collisions where the physical damage to the motor vehicles involved appears to be minimal. Appearances can be very deceiving. Even a minor impact or low impact automobile collision, (a “rear end fender bender”) will cause a jolt to the neck and cervical spine that may result in disabling neck and shoulder pain., back spasms, or even lumbar or cervical disc herniations.

California definition of Whiplash Injury: The term whiplash describes the sudden snap backward of the neck (hyperextension, or hyper-extension) and subsequent sudden snap forward (hyperflexion, or hyper-flexion) upon impact, usually in sudden impact car accidents. While this violent motion in auto accidents rarely causes a broken neck, it frequently leaves the victim of the traffic accident with a severe neck strain sprain, or at the very least a stiff and sore neck, and all too often, chronic neck pain lasting weeks, months or even years. Whiplash injuries from car accidents cause damage to the cervical vertebrae (cervical neck discs) and surrounding soft tissues. The worst symptoms of a whiplash injury from a car accident are rarely felt right away. A whiplash victim may not have whip lash symptoms for several hours, or even until days later after the car accident. Not all neck injuries can be seen with X-rays. Joints may look normal yet be the source of tremendous pain, requiring pain medication and anti-inflammatory treatment to manage the severe discomfort. A cervical collar or neck brace may be required. In very serious auto accidents there may occur a cervical disc herniation or occult facet joint injury which may go undiagnosed until there is progressive severe neck and shoulder pain. A herniated cervical disc may require neck surgery in the worst cases.

Your California Legal Rights to Compensation for Whiplash and Cervical Neck Injuries

Under California personal injury law, if you were injured in an auto accident, or any other injury accident, due to the negligence of another, you are entitled to compensatory damages (monetary compensation) for the injuries and losses you have suffered due to their negligence. You are entitled to recover economic damages which include such things as hospitalization costs and all medical costs, as well as lost income and any lost future earning potential. In California, under personal injury law, you are also entitled to compensation for non-economic damages for such things as pain and suffering, mental anguish, scarring, disfigurement, and temporary disability, and permanent disability.
