Whiplash: This is a classic whiplash injury of the neck and may have long-lasting effects. For this reason and for treatment and follow-up, consult an orthopedic specialist, neurologist or neurosurgeon for evaluation and advice. Physical therapy, soft neck brace, anti-inflammatory medications like Advil or Aleve, and muscle relaxants may be prescribed.
