Whiplash is an injury that may be considered a neck sprain or strain. It is caused by a sudden, hard back-and-forth motion of the neck and is often seen after automobile accidents due to a collision causing a person to jerk back-and-forth in their seat. This motion causes the bones, discs, ligaments, muscles, and nerves in and around the spine to get damaged.

Whiplash is diagnosed first with a physical examination. This includes asking about your pain and symptoms, what parts feel affected and injured, and more. They may try moving your neck to see the range motion and examining parts of that area. Then, a CT scan or MRI scan should be able to identify damage to any muscles, ligaments, tendons, or discs. If they want to rule out a fracture injury that may have also occurred from the accident, they may run an X-ray test as well to see the bones.

In an injury claim, your medical records showing that the imaging tests administered by your doctor proved you were diagnosed with whiplash. This will help show that the injuries were very real. If you also did not have prior pain or complaints about neck or shoulder pain, it contributes to the fact that this accident was what caused your injury. This will further add credibility and value to your case. A medical diagnosis is essential to prove whiplash.
