More than eighty percent of individuals who suffer from whiplash will experience dizziness as one of their first warning signs of the injury. The rapid movements that bring about whiplash can cause issues with the patient's equilibrium and sense of balance, which will oftentimes have them feeling dizzy. Unlike some other warning signs of whiplash, this symptom shouldn't last for too long.

Dizziness will cause patients to experience a range of different sensations like feeling faint, unsteady, and weak. If the dizziness doesn't dissipate in a day or so, it's likely the accident the patient was recently involved in caused them to develop whiplash. There are several treatment options to consider when feeling dizzy, including everything from basic medications to surgery.
