What Can Happen to Your Body During a Car Accident?
Acceleration and deceleration forces can affect the neck, back and other musculoskeletal structures. The way those forces affect a person can vary with the collision and individual circumstances.
Symptoms may begin right away or discomfort may become noticeable over the following hours or days. A medical evaluation can help identify appropriate next steps. For practical guidance, read what to do after a car accident.
