What kinds of discomfort are usually caused by whiplash?
First aid
Explanation
**Whiplash** is a common injury in traffic accidents, especially in rear-end collisions. This injury mainly affects the neck and can cause various symptoms.
- **Muscle and headache pain**: The sudden impact can cause tension in the neck and head muscles, resulting in pain.
- **Reduced neck mobility**: The injury can limit the ability to move the neck normally due to stiffness and pain.
- **Dizziness or vertigo**: These symptoms may appear due to the impact on the neck and head structures.
These symptoms are characteristic of whiplash, unlike throat discomfort or limb pain, which are not typically associated with this injury.
