The snapping motion causes injury to the bones, muscles, tendons and nerves around the spine.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, patients may experience immediate symptoms that can last for years. However, receiving medical treatment for whiplash can help patients recover faster.<\/p>\n<p>The Desert Institute for Spine Care (DISC) has talented doctors who treat whiplash in Arizona.

Neck and back pain can last for years, and some patients report feeling the effects for the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Every whiplash patient\u2019s situation is different, and determining which cases will result in prolonged pain and which will heal swiftly can be difficult. Many patients who experience long-term pain notice symptoms shortly after their incident occurs.<\/p>\n<p>In any event, pursuing treatment for whiplash can minimize the chances of experiencing long-term symptoms. Without treatment, patients can endure years of symptoms like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sustained neck and back pain<\/li>\n<li>Reduced range of motion<\/li>\n<li>Pain that spreads to the arms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additionally, prolonged whiplash complications are more likely for patients with repeat injuries of existing conditions that cause lower back or neck pain.<\/p>\n\n                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/contact\/\" class=\"btn btn-priamry\"\n                            title=\"Schedule an Appointment\"\n                            >\n                            Schedule an Appointment                        <\/a>\n                        \n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n               \n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>   \n\n\n\n\n\n    <section id=\"full-width-review-block_8d1ff413332c49d8974570b635692543\" class=\"full-width-review js-animated-text-container\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1921\" height=\"457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop.png\" class=\"full-width-review__bg object-fit\" alt=\"Doctors Talking with Patients\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop.png 1921w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop-300x71.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop-1024x244.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop-768x183.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/card-bg-crop-1536x365.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1921px) 100vw, 1921px\" \/>    \n        <div class=\"full-width-review__wrap\">\n            <div class=\"container\">\n                <div class=\"full-width-review__column text-center\">\n                    <div class=\"full-width-review__top-content\">\n                                                    <h4> See What Our Patients Are Saying!<\/h4>\n                                                                            <p class=\"hidden-xs-down\"><i class=\"icon-swoosh\"><\/i> Don\u2019t just take our word for it.

Factors like the injury\u2019s severity, the patient\u2019s age and tolerance for certain medications will influence the treatment the doctor recommends.<\/p>\n<p>Many doctors will suggest self-care methods such as rest, heat application and cold or over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen to resolve whiplash symptoms. Other approaches like neck stability collars, physical therapy routines and osteopathic manipulation can expedite recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Spinal surgery may be on the table if other treatments fail, a simultaneous injury occurs or the patient is at risk for other spinal complications:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ruptured or herniated intervertebral disc:<\/strong> A discectomy that removes some or all of a damaged disc can resolve whiplash complications. Spinal stabilization methods like bone fusion or the installation of an artificial cervical may be necessary after a discectomy. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Patients with or at risk of spinal stenosis:<\/strong> Whiplash does not cause spinal stenosis, but it can exacerbate the narrowing of the spinal canal. A corpectomy or laminectomy can reduce pressure on the spinal cord after a whiplash injury.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/contact\/\">Schedule an Appointment<\/a><\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n                <div class=\"col-lg-6 col-md-7 col-sm-9 col-xxs-12 image-text__half image-text__img\">\n                    <div class=\"animated-image js-animated-image\">\n                        \n                            <div class=\"image-text__img-video-full\">\n                                <span class=\"js-animated-image-overlay animated-image-overlay\"><\/span>\n                                <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w.jpg\" class=\"object-fit\" alt=\"Doctors standing next to table of tools while working in the operating room\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MG_3318-1-2000w-900x600.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/>                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div> <!-- image animation wrapper -->\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n\n    <section id=\"cta-block_572ef9e91c340c80f4be12fa5aa5f0c9\" class=\"cta cta-bg-red js-animated-text-container\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"cta-wrapper\">\n                <div class=\"cta-overlay-wrapper\">                    \n                                                                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-md-down\" alt=\"Dr Abrams explaining spine x-ray\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1024x266.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1536x398.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-xs-down hidden-lg\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams consulting\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg 663w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab-300x189.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"330\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-sm-up\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams laughing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile-208x300.jpg 208w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/>                                                                                        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta-content\">\n                                            <h2>Schedule a Whiplash Consultation<\/h2>\n                                        <p>If you\u2019re experiencing neck pain after a car accident, sports injury or other sudden trauma, consult with a dependable whiplash injury doctor in your area.
