Be seen: Whiplash is a term usually used to describe a hyper extension injury to the neck that can occur with an injury such as a car wreck. Radiologic studies are often normal and it is theorized it may represent an injury to the posterior facet joints in the neck. If your mid acl was injured and is causing pain, you should be seen and thoroughly evaluated for an accurate diagnosis.
