Potential Concussion as a Result of Whiplash
When someone suffers a whiplash neck injury, there is also potential that a concussion (mTBI) has occurred. The head and brain can go through the same shaking back and forth process, resulting in a concussion. If you are experiencing headaches, an altered mental state, or loss of consciousness, these are all potential signs of a concussion.
