Actually whiplash involves an injury to your neck. If you were hit from behind it can affect your neck and back, but your injury appears to be affecting your back. It is possible that the impact of the crash has impacted your back more than your neck. It depends on how hard you were hit. My suggestion is to see a doctor about this. Tell them what happened, where you feel the pain and they should be able to provide you with the treatment.

Make sure you tell your insurance that your back is killing you and they will usually pay for the Dr. Visit. It should be looked at immediately or you will pay for it later in life.

I would get checked out by a doctor and the driver at fault insurance would pay for this and any treatment you need.

Back Pain.........

It comes in many forms, from lower back pain, middle back pain, or upper back pain to low back pain with sciatica.

Common back pain causes include nerve and muscular problems, degenerative disc disease, and arthritis.

Many people find relief from symptoms of back pain with pain medication or pain killers.

But you need to see a doctor ASAP.
