Neck and shoulder pain after accident suvere?


Question:
I got rear-ended in an accident yesterday. Everyone was fine, but this morning I woke up with discomfort in my neck and shuolders. How soon will this go away? Should I go see a dr? It isn't too bad of pain, it just feels like a sore muscle similar to after a workout.

Answers:
Sounds like classic whiplash..but could be something more serious. See your doctor immediately, but be sure and ask if they will treat you since you were in a car accident. There are many doctors that just do not want the headache of dealing with the insurance red tape.
yes u should go see a doctor. a friend of mine had another friend that was in a car accident and didnt go to the doctor or hospital and she went home to go to sleep and never woke up. I dont mean to scare you but you should get it checked
