Late Whiplash Syndrome

Generally people who suffer from a Whiplash-Associated Disorder have the symptoms for less than three months, but occasionally they may still get neck pains or headaches.

A proportion of those who sustain whiplash injuries may however go on to suffer what is known as Late Whiplash Syndrome.

Late Whiplash Syndrome is the term given to a group of residual symptoms that persist for longer than six months after the accident occurred. It's existence has often been denied by insurance companies looking to defend compensation claims but increasingly many medical practitioners recognise Late Whiplash Syndrome as valid condition and are prepared to support compensation claims for it.
