Automobile accidents often result in injuries such as whiplash, back pain, and soft tissue damage. Whiplash, caused by the rapid back-and-forth motion of the neck during a collision, can lead to neck pain, headaches, and reduced neck motion. Back pain, especially in the lower back, may result from muscle or disc injuries, sometimes accompanied by numbness or tingling. Soft tissue injuries in the extremities can cause muscle aches, soreness, and weakness.
