Depending on the severity of your whiplash injury, treatment may include the use of a cervical collar, which immobilizes the neck while it heals. Other effective forms of treatment include anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy and nerve blocks. Our team of orthopedic pain experts can help determine what kind of treatment is best for you.

Another concern with whiplash is a chronic cervicogenic headache—80% of people who sustain whiplash injuries develop what’s referred to as whiplash headaches. If you suspect you are suffering from whiplash headaches, we can also help you find the most adequate form of treatment, such as:

• • Physical therapy
  • Anti-inflammatory medication
  • Steroid/anesthetic injections (short-term pain relief)
  • Radiofrequency pain blocks (long-term pain relief)
