Neck Injuries from a Car Accident in Queens


Neck injuries are among one of the most common injuries that can happen in a car accident. To properly identify and treat your specific neck injury from a car accident you should see a doctor or visit a hospital directly or shortly after the accident. Common neck injuries caused by a car accident are:
  • Neck sprain - A medical condition involving stretching or tearing of the soft tissues in the neck. This may include muscles, tendons or ligaments. Mild neck sprains involve stretching of the ligaments whereas a more severe neck sprain involves a partial tear.
  • Neck strain - A medical condition that usually results in discomfort as a result of stress to the muscles of the neck. Neck strains are primarily caused by a person's head sharply being thrown forward and backward (whiplash).
  • Pinched Nerve in Neck (Cervical Radiculopathy) - A condition in which an irritation or pinching of a nerve in the neck causes pain.

  • Herniated Disc in Neck - A injury caused by too much neck motion putting pressure on a disc or discs. This may sometimes also be called a slipped disc or a ruptured disc. The pressure in the neck can cause pain, numbness and weakness along the nerve causing extreme discomfort.
