Neck Injuries
Injuries to the neck can happen after you get hit from behind by any blunt force such as during a car accident, playing sports, or doing other physical activities. Any trauma to the neck forces your head back and forth suddenly and cause damage. Besides neck pain, you may also have headaches that begin at the base of your skull along with tingling or numbness.
Treatment for neck injuries
To help with the neck pain, your doctor may recommend medication. He may also be advising you rest and exercises to help your muscles.
