How Can A Whiplash Injury Be Treated?

Okay so about 3 months ago I was in a trampoline doing gymnastics. Long story short I had attempted a spinning flip but lost control. I was knocked out pretty hard from what others had told me. I went to the nearest ER and they said it was whiplash then slapped a neck brace on me and sent me home. Now today im feeling the affects like then did ten minutes after it happened. What do I do? Could my medical examiner missed something serious

Hoi and welcome.
I dont think that he missed something, It is typical for whiplash to have such course and pain may persist for several weeks even months.

Your doctor may refer you to a physical therapist if you need help learning range-of-motion exercises or if you experience chronic pain from whiplash. The therapist may introduce additional exercises to strengthen muscles, improve posture and restore normal movement. The goal is to create a customized routine that eventually you can do independently at home.

WIsh you good health. Regards
