Those
who walk away from a car accident without injury are certainly
fortunate because even simple, rear end accidents can result in serious
injuries. The neck and low back are two of the most common areas of
injury in a rear end car accident. Generally speaking, cervical and
lumbar injuries may require chiropractic treatment, physical therapy,
injection therapy and even surgery.
In addition to neck and low back injuries, rear end accidents can cause other injuries, such as:
brain/head injuries,
arm/shoulder pain,
knee pain, and
severe bruising.
Depending
on the extent of the injuries, medical bills may pile up and the
individual may be required to miss work. A few days of lost work here
and there can put a family in financial straits.
Neck Injuries in a Read End Accident
In
a rear end accident, the body while in a seated position will move
forward with sufficient force and back again. Assuming the individual
was wearing a seat belt, the individual will come into contact with the
seat belt, while being pushed forward. The neck, which carries the
weight of the head (on average, 8 pounds), will snap forward and back
again, against the head rest. This is commonly called whiplash.
In
more severe rear end accidents, such as when an individual is struck
from behind by another car or truck traveling at a high rate of speed,
the body moves forward more violently. In other words, the more forceful
the impact, the more forceful the body is pushed forward and back. In
some situations, especially when the impact is severe, whiplash can even
result in head injuries.
Because of the natural curve and bend
of the neck, C4-5 and C5-6 tend to be common locations of injury. Common
types of neck injuries which result from rear end car accidents
include:
disc herniations,
disc protrusions, and
disc bulges.
In
severe cases, discs may compress on nerves and nerve roots, causing
extreme pain symptoms. In addition, annular tears can also occur.
