I fell on my front but injured my back
January 12, 2014
Roxana asked The Guru for the following Physiotherapy Advice:
… I feel like I have awoken an old whiplash injury – is that possible?
Why don’t my migraines go away when painkillers help my back ache???
My GP says I have to wait a week (to Wednesday) before seeing you – is it wise to wait so long?

Hi Roxana
Yes, totally possible. It’s all about what you’ve done rather than when you’ve done it. Whiplash included.
70% of migraines are due to neck issues, the other 30% may not be due to a musculoskeletal issue. If it’s your poor mechanics causing the migraines then taking a pill will not alter those mechanics and your symptoms will stay the same.
….not sure about having to wait a week. I think the sooner the better…
