I've had whiplash issues since I was hit on the passenger side of my car by an f150 truck I'm 2002. I now suffer from migraines I didn't have before that wreck. And since I have a fused spine from scoliosis surgery I cant go to a chiropractor for treatment. So I'm living in constant severe pain. And I wore my seatbelt. I also suffer from post concussion syndrome
Hi Janae, thanks for your comment. We're so sorry to hear that you have been experiencing this! We recommend consulting a health professional, like a GP or perhaps a Watsons Headache Clinician to determine if you would benefit from treatment to ease these symptoms. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
I had an RTA in 1999 and have migraines, constant background headaches, pressure over bridge of nose ever since. Is it possible these headaches are still from the original whiplash injury?
Hi Achala, good question! It is possible that these headaches are as a result of the whiplash injury. The best thing to do would be to consult your GP or perhaps a Watsons Headache Clinician to determine if that is what is contributing to your symptoms and how they can help you.
@@brisbaneheadacheandmigrain3863 thank you. I had no degeneration present on xray at time of accident at age 36. 2 years later I had degeneration present. Now recent MRI shows C5 spinal cord flattening, marked stenosis and foraminal degeneration, especially C5/6/7, but I had some Prolotherapy and that helped the aching at C6/7. But didn't help with pain near c4/5. There wasn't as much degeneration at C1/2/3, but isn't is C1 that causes headaches? Could it be facet joints? I have lost my lordosis, so that doesn't help the vague nerve. I have had every test under the sun for these headaches, all negative, the only explanation left is its coming from the neck.
I had different headaches including menstrual ones after I hurt my neck while sleeping in February of 2022 which has given me a lot of anxiety. I was sleeping on my stomach and during a nightmare flipped my head to sides than at one point over extended it too far out to one side… I can’t believe ; can I cause whiplash from sleeping ? It was pretty forceful
Hi Selen, wow, I'm sorry to hear that you have had to experience this. In case you haven't already, you may benefit from seeing your GP to undergo further assessment. I hope you're able to find some relief from your symptoms soon!
@@brisbaneheadacheandmigrain3863 hi, I have already seen him and some walkins and it was classified as tension headache. It coming back mainly during menstruation k asked for a referred to neuro but it will be in December waittimes are long in Canada u less it’s urgent. Good news is I started physio/chiro at a clinic and been 4 sessions now and 3 weeks almost headache free and for the first period I had since I didn’t have a headache, I think it’s definitely helping. I also been careful to avoid the wind with a scarf (as I find it a trigger) and watch my posture and good I eat. What do you think it stems from ? Should I just wait for my appointment upcoming then
@@selen5487 Hi Selen, thanks for your question. It's great to hear that your symptoms have been reducing since you started seeing the physio/chiro! I recommend discussing with them what they think has been causing your migraines as they will have a much better understanding after doing some assessments and treatments with you. I hope this helps!
I’m grateful that I found your channel. I am just so confused
