What Causes Blurred Vision After A Neck Injury?

i fell backwards on an incline when i landed i landed feet up in the air and came down on my neck. the er doctor did a cat scan nothing broken. she told me too follow up with a ortho dr. but they sent me too a comp doc from work and he said it was just musle bruise and gave me a neck brace & flexoral & napriosine. i was off work for a week. yesterday i was sent back on light duty even though i told the dr my neck feels ok when i wake up but then 1-2hrs later the pain is there and my vision gets blurry he said it was normal? is it normal or do think i have something else wrong? today the pain is now in both sides of my neck where it started souly on my left only? please help?

Hello,

Since the Doctor cleared you and the CT scan didn't find any traumatic damages, your condition is not serious. Concussion and whiplash symptoms may last a couple of weeks. It is necessary to rest until symptoms disappear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
