    I was young enough when it happened that it healed pretty good. I just tough it out when it gets bad... kinda how I was raised, you just work through the pain and get the job done.

    No I don't... because I don't let it hold me back... I don't think of it as a way to get a "free lunch" so to speak. What they don't know won't hurt them.

    The pain in the back of my head is killing me right now. I used my neck massage device but it didn't help at all. I just had 400 mg of Ibuprufen, and the muscle relaxant. Tough painful life.

    I haven't had whiplash but have had a few "over extension" injuries.

    They get better and heal up in time.
    Just when you forget you had them, they come back to remind you they are still there.

    I think you have a new lifelong "friend".

    Never had a whiplash injury from an accident or been to a chiropractor but when you’ve had a bad day hauling smooth bore chemical tankers it can feel like you been in both places.

    I don't mind a reminder once every month or something, but this constant and nagging reminder is exhausting :(

    Yes getting old. But I had no pain whatsoever. This accident caused it. My blood boils every time I remember that bad driver.

    Just came from massage therapist. She says I shouldnt drive 7 days a week and rest two days. She says she doesnt feel anything abnormal in my neck. Pain is coming from weak shoulders and pectoral muscles. She suggested gym workout(on pectoral muscles specially)and healthy diet and lots of water. She is probably right. My pectoral muscles are like girls lol
