Maximum whiplash injury compensation in the UK
People typically consider physical injuries like a broken arm or neck strain when they think of Whiplash injury compensation claims. However, a claimant should be aware that they can also make a claim for psychological injuries or trauma in addition to physical injuries. Concise Medico knows that filing a personal injury claim is about more than just the monetary settlement.
In fact, we frequently observe a wide range of different driving forces behind people contacting us for assistance. Therefore, filing a compensation claim for injuries and inconvenience you should not have suffered is within your civil rights. We could assist you through the process.
Accidents involving fast-moving traffic frequently result in whiplash. No matter how violent the jolt, even low-speed collisions can result in whiplash because the muscles contract as a protective reflex.
These soft tissue whiplash-type injuries are a common consequence of auto accidents. Even though many of the cases we work on also involve other, more complex injuries, whiplash is present in many of them.
Regular exercising is advised; however, not all whiplash conditions resolve or get better with exercise, leaving behind long-term and chronic effects.
A day or even a week may pass before whiplash symptoms appear, with headaches and stiffness in the neck being the most noticeable. After the accident, you might not feel anything for a day before noticing a variety of symptoms, such as:
- A sore pain in the neck
- Headaches, mostly in the frontal skull
- Stiff neck and head movement challenges
- Stiffness and discomfort in your shoulders and back
- Numbness or tingling in your arms
- Dizziness, irritability and Fatigue
Additional whiplash symptoms in more severe cases include:
- Distorted or blurry vision
- Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
- Trouble sleeping
- Difficulties with memory
- Depression and anxiety
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Mood swings
Numerous cases go untreated because treatment options for whiplash are extremely limited. At Concise Medico, we offer a range of treatments for whiplash and rehabilitative options for the ones who have suffered Whiplash.
Diagnosis For Whiplash
We can arrange general practitioner, neurologist, and orthopaedic appointments for you, and your claim will cover the expenses:
- Physical evaluation from General Practitioner
- Examination by orthopaedists and neurologists
- Independent MRI, X-Ray and CT scan providers
Rehabilitation For Whiplash
The compensation settlement for a whiplash claim involving therapy would typically be higher as it would indicate a more serious injury.
- Physiotherapy can help restrengthen the muscles
- Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for chronic pain
- Pain consultant for mobility restoration and pain management
Do not ignore the psychological injuries after whiplash
If you are seeking whiplash compensation, you may be undervaluing your settlement by ignoring the psychological effects of your accident. However, for psychological injury compensation, your solicitor will consider the following when determining the value of a claim and what settlement a claimant is likely to receive:
- Mental health evaluation
- Expert witness testimony
- Expert witness CPR-compliant reports
It is more difficult to make a claim for whiplash compensation if a claimant has not accurately disclosed all of the accident and injury details, including psychological injuries. Getting a professional diagnosis and treatment for whiplash psychological injury is essential when pursuing a claim for whiplash injury compensation, as it is with all injuries. Concise Medico can assist anyone injured in an accident that was not their fault, whether they have suffered physical harm, psychological trauma, or both.
Claim psychological damage in your whiplash injury compensation
You have the right to file a claim if an accident that was not your fault left you with psychological injuries. Any person diagnosed with a psychological condition resulting from an accident for which they were not at fault has a legal right to file a claim for compensation for psychological injuries.
1. If the claim is accepted, the claimant will receive compensation for the full extent of their psychological harm and its impact on their life.
2. Any income loss brought on by psychological trauma will be covered by a special damage claim that is part of a successful claim settlement.
