Not every injury is visible.
After a Florida car accident, it’s easy to brush off symptoms or assume you’ll “walk it off.” But the truth is, even low-speed collisions can cause serious, lasting harm — especially when left untreated.

At GOLDLAW, we work with clients who suffer injuries that weren’t immediately obvious — but had devastating effects. Here are some of the most common (and most misunderstood) auto accident injuries we see.

🚗 1. Whiplash and Neck Injuries

Whiplash is one of the most common soft tissue injuries, especially in rear-end collisions. It can cause:

Neck stiffness and pain

Headaches

Dizziness

Limited range of motion

Symptoms may not appear for days, but untreated whiplash can lead to chronic pain and nerve damage.

🚗 2. Back and Spinal Injuries

Accidents often cause herniated discs, spinal cord trauma, or pinched nerves. These injuries can result in:

Chronic pain

Numbness or tingling in limbs

Loss of mobility

Long-term rehabilitation needs

Even a “minor” back injury can impact your ability to work and live comfortably.

🚗 3. Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

A blow to the head — even without loss of consciousness — can cause:

Memory loss

Trouble concentrating

Mood changes

Vision or hearing issues

TBIs are especially dangerous because they’re often missed in early ER visits and may take weeks to fully reveal themselves.

🚗 4. Broken Bones and Fractures

From wrists and ribs to legs and facial bones, fractures can mean:

Surgery

Immobilization

Missed work

Physical therapy

Don’t minimize your injury just because it’s “not life-threatening.”

🚗 5. Psychological Trauma

Car accidents often leave behind invisible injuries like:

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Anxiety or panic attacks

Depression

Sleep disturbances

You deserve compensation for mental and emotional harm, too.
