You Might Feel Neck and Back Injuries Days After an Accident
It can take time for the symptoms to develop. For example, you may not feel neck pain until a day or two after the accident. This is because it can take time for the inflammation to develop. You might feel neck and back injuries days after an accident. Here are some symptoms to look for:
- Neck pain or stiffness
- Shoulder pain or stiffness
- Headaches
- Lower back pain
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs

If you were in a car accident, you may want to get checked out by a doctor even if you don’t feel pain right away. This is because car accidents can often cause whiplash, which is a neck injury. Whiplash can be serious and may require treatment.
