Saint Paul MN Whiplash Injury Treatment and Shoulder Pain

Shoulder discomfort is a condition reported by many car crash patients, and there are two typical explanations.

The first is direct injury to the shoulder during the wreck. If your shoulder hits something directly, it can tear the joint capsule. In addition, if you are clenching the steering wheel tightly during a rear-end collision, your body can lag behind the car, putting tension on your wrists and shoulders.

The second cause of shoulder pain is not so direct and can be harder to identify. Shock to the neck or spine can create tension on the nerves that travel from the spine to your shoulder, arm, and hands. This can be baffling, as the pain or numbness is experienced in one part of your body, while the problem is actually in your spine.
