This medical check up will not only help identify the extent of whiplash injury but also help prove your were injured as the medical check will be noted on your patient records.
A whiplash injury may have some effects on the injured person’s movement and can cause symptoms that range from mild to quite severe or even chronic whiplash, where recovery can take a long time. Diagnosis is usually given by a medical practitioner in an accident and emergency hospital or doctor’s surgery.

Usually the treatment for whiplash includes physio and refraining from strenuos physical activity. However it is advisable to keep movement as normal as possible as the neck recovers better when you try to go about your normal day to day activities as best you can, Pain killers and anti inflammatory are sometimes prescribed and heat or ice packs can be a good source of relief to sore and painful areas.
Does whiplash injury occur when hit in low speed car crashes?
Yes you can still get whiplash at low velocity, for example when a car is maneuvering in and out of a car parking space in a petrol station, city centre, car park, and supermarket or shopping retail parks. These kinds of accidents happen when people are rushing around in their hectic schedule and sometimes a moment’s lapsed concentration is to blame. You could be hit in the rear, a hit in side of the car or someone may be reversing at high speed and hit the front end or your car. It does not matter so long as you were not fully at fault you may be able to claim.
