How long do whiplash injuries last?
The majority of whiplash injuries are mild and will clear up after only a few days. A personal injury claim will not usually be made for mild whiplash injuries. However, in a small number of cases the injury may persist for many months and in some cases years. It should be noted that whiplash injuries will not appear for sometime, often more than 12 hours after an accident. And also when symptoms first appear they may initially get worse before recovering.
