Shoulder soreness is a condition reported by many auto collision patients in Beaverton,
and there are two typical causes.
The first is direct trauma to the shoulder during the wreck. If your shoulder strikes
something directly, it can tear the joint capsule. Also, if you are gripping the steering
wheel firmly during a rear-end crash, your body can lag behind, straing on your wrists
and shoulders.
The second cause of shoulder pain is less direct and can be more difficult to diagnose.
Whiplash creates stress to the neck or back can create pressure on the nerve fibers that travel from the
spine to your shoulder, arm, and hands. This can be confounding, as the pain or
numbness is felt in one part of your body, while the problem is actually in your spine.
