Common Neck Injuries |
|
The neck is susceptible to injury. A neck injury can disrupt the nerve signals to the rest of the body, leading
to numbness, loss of feeling, and in some cases paralysis. The pain from a neck injury may spread to your
shoulders, back and arms and in some cases your movement may also be limited.
Neck injuries include fractures,
torn or pulled muscles and ligaments. There may almost no symptoms immediately after an accident, sometimes
the symptoms could take weeks to develop. So if you have had an accident at work or been involved in a road
accident which you suspect has caused a neck injury, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
