Whiplash sucks

have you done any chin tucks they're pretty effective you need to them all day like 10 every hour.

 

well god only knows all the aches and pains i have had, and still to this day have.

usually for me, a heating pad for several minutes, more than once per day, eventually quells the pains and things get better.

you driving a truck, obviously cannot use an ordinary heating pad. if you have a microwave, you might be able to heat dry towel, and apply that to the pained area.

regular rubs with any sort of cream, like Aspercreme (sp?), Zostrich(sp?), might be of help, STAY AWAY for that CBC oil, or what ever that crap is.. some say it gets into your blood stream, and makes you pop a positive at a random, i dunno, how true that is, but i am sure 5,000 guys here will give you 47,000 opinions in a few minutes.

 

If that’s the amount of pain you are in, you should not be driving.

You need to find a specialist for neck problems, this may not be neurological, and a neuro specialist will tell you what it is but also setup a plan for you.

I also don’t buy the crap about age and the report, I’ve gone through a lot of back and neck pain plus surgeries since my accident (knocked off the bed of a trailer). My last issue was muscular, I went through six months of weekly therapy to get the muscles working right and I had similar pain.

 

You are asking all of the same questions as a previous poster that was given the boot. Are you sure you are not "hopefuleyes"?

 

Question? Why did you wait almost a year and a half from the time of the accident to get an MRI? In almost every situation being hit in the rear means the person that hit you is at fault. Their insurance company is not going to like this at all. My sister was hit like this about 15 years ago. Her MRI also came back just like yours did. She finally had to see an orthopedic specialist and went through some physical therapy. MRIs are notorious for not being conclusive in fully diagnosing whiplash injuries. These physicians should know this. In my sister's case, they did an MRI to rule out spinal damage, once this was done she got referred to an Orthopedic physician who started her on PT. Something is hinky here????

 

You know, I fell asleep the other day on my couch and my head was at a terrible angle. Took almost a month for my neck to stop hurting, and it was the muscle or tendon that runs up the side of your head. After I had surgery on C-6, for a few years after I would go to physical therapy and they had a table you laid on that had a horseshoe type device that fit your neck. It would stretch your neck (de-compress) and it really helped. You might try something like this.
