Whiplash Treatment with Our Chiropractor in Campbell and San Jose, CA
Symptoms of whiplash, such as neck pain and stiffness, can be so intense that it's difficult to work, workout, sleep, drive, and do all the other activities you want and need to do throughout the day. At Life Giving Chiropractic, our San Jose and Campbell, CA, chiropractor, Dr. Tyrone Isquirdo, can help you find relief from your whiplash symptoms quickly using gentle and non-invasive techniques.
How Whiplash Happens
Whiplash happens when a person's head and neck suddenly (and forcefully) bend back and forth. This can happen in a variety of situations, from slipping on a wet floor to falling from a height to getting into an auto accident.
The forceful flexion and extension can irritate and inflame tissues within the neck area, including muscles, discs, joints, nerves, and bones. If left untreated, whiplash may lead to chronic pain and dysfunction.
Signs and Symptoms of Whiplash
You might have whiplash if you recently experienced physical trauma and now notice the following signs and symptoms:
- Neck pain, which might feel sharp, dull, achy, or sore
- Neck stiffness
- Spasms and tightness in the muscles around the neck and shoulders
- Shoulder pain or stiffness
- Pain and tingling that extends into one or both arms and hands
- Headaches
- Jaw pain and clicking
- Trouble concentrating
- Trouble sleeping
- Irritability and brain fog
- Ringing in the ears
Whiplash symptoms can range from mild to severe, and may get better or worse throughout the day depending on factors like stress, sleep quality, and activity level.
