Arthritis after whiplash
History:*victim of rear-end auto accident 2008.I settled w/ ins. w/o treatment
because I thought I was ok. I didnt know what I was doing.
I've progressively suffered varying degrees of pain and stiffness since in
neck/shoulders.
*I was rear-ended again Dec 2012.
Neck/shoulders,arms, wrists were sore next day.
* It was 1-2 wks before I could see my doctor,secretary put me off.
I complained of stiffness and pain. Prescribed muscle relaxers.Was
told I was stick straight.
*Later I was told I had a touch of arthritis and
was suggested to go to physical therapy for accident.
*March: I began physical therapy. It is week four and finally a bit of
relief. But I still have some remaining stiffness and pain.
*How do I tell the difference between a touch of arthritis and problems related to the whiplash?I am asked to rate the pain. How do I know what answer is? I don't want to short change myself in treatment, because I unintentionally did that before.I want to get well and have the ability to be treated for this problem or for potential future problems.
*I believe the arthritis came about through either the previous auto accident.?
*Or can it come about after the second one that soon?
