Whiplash can arise from a variety of accidents, but the most common cause is undoubtedly car crashes and other road accidents.
The NHS says the main symptoms of whiplash include:
- neck stiffness
- neck pain
- swelling of the neck
- tenderness in the neck area, particularly at the back
- reduced movement in the neck
- Complete loss of head movement
- Headaches
And that’s not all. Other symptoms of whiplash can include:
- Pain in the lower back
- pain, numbness or pins and needles in the arms and hands
- muscle spasms
- feeling dizzy
- feeling tired
- difficulty swallowing
- blurred vision
- vertigo
- tinnitus – or ringing in the ears

Who we've helped - an AAH success story
“On the day of my accident, I was stationary in my car at a set of traffic lights in Tottenham, on a main road with one lane of travel in each direction.
I suddenly heard a loud bang and felt my vehicle being thrown forward. The vehicle behind mine had smashed into the back of it.
The defendant and I pulled over and exchanged details. He admitted that he was at fault
Since the accident I have felt several of the symptoms of whiplash: I was suffering pains in my neck and back and so I went to my GP. He confirmed that my symptoms meant that I was indeed suffering from whiplash, and so I made a compensation claim through Accident Advice Helpline.
I was able to claim £2215.”
