How Head Pain Is Caused by Car Accidents and How Jefferson Spine & Injury Center Can Help You

There are many different kinds of headache. Headache that's caused by an auto collision, though, usually starts as tension or strain in the muscle tissue of the neck. In a wreck, the neck muscles can be torn, which causes swelling and soreness. These kinds of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the forehead.

Another common cause of pain after a crash that we see in our Arlington office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that originate in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is quite common after a crash, and it's important to get therapy for this type of problem to protect against the development of scar tissue.
