    I got whiplash in Queensland and want to make a claim…

    Whiplash is a very common injury sustained in a car accident. In Queensland many car accident claims involve a whiplash injury.

    Whiplash is caused when a person’s head is moved forward and back, or side to side, with great force. Symptoms may not be felt immediately, but will mostly start within a few days. Symptoms can include:

    • Neck pain and stiffness
    • Pain that gets worse with neck movement
    • Poor range of motion in the neck
    • Headaches
    • Tenderness or aching in the shoulder, upper back or arms
    • Tingling or numbness in the arms
    • Tiredness
    • Dizziness

    Some people also have:

    • Blurred vision
    • Jaw pain
    • Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
    • Poor sleeping
    • Crankiness
    • Focus issues
    • Memory problems
    • Depression

    Recovery from a whiplash injury will vary from person to person given the unique circumstances of the event and the individual.
