Does Whiplash Get Worse Over Time?
I was in a car accident about an hour ago and my shoulder is pretty sore. Can I expect it to get worse?
Well…
It might. I had whiplash about 15 years ago and put up with the ache until a couple of weeks later, my neck stiffened up. I then got treatment for it. I recommend that you see your doctor and ask for physiotherapy. You should get checked out anyway in case you have damaged something else. I still get more achy down the left hand side of my body when I am tired or have been doing physical things, but am really lucky at the moment as my boss provides free massages three days a week. I saw an osteopath or chiropracter a couple of times a year whenever it got too painful.
