Soft tissue injuries of the neck.
Soft tissue injuries of the neck are a frequent and important cause of disability and as such deserve close attention and concern.  Patient management following this injury should not be left to the therapist but instead should be controlled closely by the physician to promote rapid recovery and avoid psychosomatic problems.  Despite all methods of treatment there are patients who continue to complain of neck symptoms and others who develop degenerative disk changes in the years after injury.
