Neck Pain Due To Hyperextension |
|
Let's take a rear end collision. As the head travels backward, it can
either hit against a good headrest, or if the headrest is too low or not there, it travels
backward until the facet joints in the back of the spine and/or
the ligaments in the front of the neck stop it. The
most commonly injured muscles are the SCM's and
longus
colli. |
