Whiplash is a common injury that occurs to a person’s neck when there is a sudden acceleration-deceleration force, most commonly from motor vehicle accidents. The term “whiplash injury” describes damage to both the bone structures and soft tissues, while “whiplash associated disorders” describes a more severe and chronic condition.
It is when there is a sudden impact which causes your head and neck to hyperextend or hyper flexed, commonly in motor vehicle accidents.
