Whiplash Treatment
When you have suffered a whiplash injury you should immediately seek help from your General Practitioner or Accident and Emergency Department. Although the injuries are often minor, some can have complications.
A whiplash injury is a soft tissue injury. Therefore, you can treat it as with any other soft tissue injury: apply ice to the area of pain as you would if you sprained an ankle. You should not apply ice directly to the skin but put it inside a tea towel or a plastic bag to prevent any suffering from ice burns.
You can also take painkillers to ease the pain.
If you ask 1stClaims to help you, one of our specialist solicitors can arrange private medical treatment for you as part of your claim, recovering the costs of this treatment from the other driver's insurance company. Treatment can be arranged across the UK and with a variety of treatment providers including:
- Physiotherapists
- Chiropractors
- Accupuncturists
One of the first actions your 1stClaims solicitor will undertake is to instruct a medical expert to examine you to assess your injuries. This expert will also advise you whether you should have any further treatment. If you should, your solicitor will arrange this for you.
