Video Transcript **Speakers:** Ira Sherman, Joseph Cammarata, Stephen Ollar, Allan Siegel **Ira Sherman (00:02):** I would say that Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata and Siegel has a completely different outlook on cases that other people think are garden variety automobile accidents, because to the person who is involved in that accident, that’s not garden variety, that’s altering their life. **Joseph Cammarata (00:21):** First of all, we don’t advertise. People come to us by word of mouth, either from defense lawyers, from insurance companies, from colleagues at the bar. They know that we have decades of experience in the personal injury field. They know that what we bring to bear is a group of lawyers that work and non-lawyers that work as a team to make sure we understand what the nature and the extent of the injury is. We make sure we understand and can express to a third party just what those injuries are, and we work to obtain the most compensation that we can for an individual. **Stephen Ollar (01:04):** What we do a lot of is discovery, not just discovery of the facts of the case, but discovery about insurance. It may be that the individual was operating the vehicle for an employer, and if they were acting with what we call the course and scope of their employment, then there could be potentially additional coverage that would cover a person for those injuries. **Allan Siegel (01:27):** We’ve been handling car accident cases since Don Chaikin founded this firm over 50 years ago. Since we spend a lot of time and we have a lot of those cases, we have developed a level of experience and knowledge that I think is very unique in our field. There aren’t many law firms who can say that they’ve been doing this type of work for over 50 years. **Ira Sherman (01:52):** I care enough to look to determine who this person is and how it affected them, and that takes up a lot of my conversation with our clients. Whiplash is a neck injury caused when the head is quickly moved back and forth. This can happen from being in a [car accident](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/whiplash-injury/), getting hit in the head, or diving into the water. Many people who [suffer from whiplash](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/whiplash-injury/) also experience headaches. If you or a loved one are experiencing a whiplash headache due to an auto accident, you may be entitled to compensation. Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer with Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata & Siegel, P.C. today for what steps to take next and whether or not you have the right to [file a personal injury claim](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/filing-a-personal-injury-claim/). ![Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata & Siegel, P.C., Can Whiplash Cause Headaches]() ## Cervicogenic Headaches Many car accident victims who experience whiplash develop a chronic headache, also known as a cerviogenic headache. The sudden back-and-forth movement of whiplash can injure the [cervical facet joints](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/whiplash-injury/facet-joint-injuries/). This causes inflammation and irritation of the brain and spinal cord nerves. ## Symptoms of Whiplash Headaches The symptoms of a [cervicogenic headache ](https://www.spine-health.com/conditions/neck-pain/what-cervicogenic-headache)can vary but may include: * [Neck pain](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/neck-pain-after-a-car-accident/) * Tenderness or pain in the neck muscles * [Stiffness in the neck](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/neck-injuries/) * [Dizziness](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/whiplash-injury/dizziness/) * [Nausea](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/stomach-pain/) * Blurred vision * Reduced flexibility of the neck * Pain along the shoulder and arm on the same side ## Treatment Options for Cervicogenic Headaches There are several treatment options for cervicogenic headaches: * **Medications** – Medications can be used to help relieve pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms. * **Chiropractic Care** – Chiropractic care can help realign the spine and reduce pressure on the nerves in the neck. * **Physical Therapy** – Physical therapy can help to stretch and strengthen the neck muscles. * **Nerve ablation procedures** – Nerve ablation procedures destroy the nerves that carry pain signals from the neck to the head. * **Injections** – Your doctor may use a cervical epidural steroid injection if they believe an intervertebral disc injury contributes to pain. ![whiplash injury after a car accident, paramedic help]() ## Can I Sue for a Headache Related to a Whiplash Injury?
