A member asked:
Can pituitary malfunction be caused by whiplash or other neck injuries? can the malfunction cause chronic neck pain in and of itself?

No and yes: It cannot cause injuries by definition in terms of whiplash. However, it can lead to a variety of musculoskeletal presentations in terms of muscle pain or even fractures secondary to osteoporosis.
