Overview

Whiplash is a neck injury caused by rapid back-and-forth movement of the head, most commonly from car accidents or sports injuries. At Reddy Urgent Care, we assess whiplash injuries, check for fracture, and begin treatment the same day.

Symptoms We Treat

  • Neck pain and stiffness
  • Pain worsening with neck movement
  • Headache starting at the base of the skull
  • Tenderness in the shoulder or upper back
  • Dizziness
  • Fatigue
  • Tingling or numbness in the arms

How We Treat It At Reddy Urgent Care

Walk-In — No Appointment Needed

Simply walk in during our operating hours. No referral or scheduled appointment is required to be seen by our medical team.

Same-Day Care

We evaluate, diagnose, and treat most conditions the same day you visit so you can get back to feeling your best as quickly as possible.

Care for All Ages

Our providers treat patients of all ages — from infants and children to adults and seniors — under one roof.

Most Insurance Accepted

We accept most major insurance plans, Medi-Cal, and Medicare. We verify your benefits before treatment and inform you of any costs upfront.

Types Of Whiplash We Treat

  • Whiplash from car accident

    Most common cause. Rear-end collisions are the most frequent mechanism.

  • Whiplash from sports injury

    Contact sports and falls can cause whiplash.

  • Whiplash with headache

    Headache is a very common associated symptom — we assess both.

  • Delayed whiplash symptoms

    Symptoms can appear 24–48 hours after the incident — still worth assessment.

When to Go to the Emergency Room Instead

Go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 if you or someone with you has:

  • Loss of sensation or severe weakness in arms or hands
  • Difficulty walking or loss of balance after neck injury
  • Severe neck pain following a high-impact accident

If you are unsure, go to the ER. It is always better to be safe.
