My accident was two and a half years ago. My injury was 7 rib fractures. I was hit in the side motor. If it had hit the door I don't know if I would have survived. The cervical spine issue was long in the making. Many years of book work and sewing and bad posture. I am going to contact a spine specialist to see if they will treat it. My understanding is that it is wearing a collar for some time daily over a period of weeks. I think it's a matter of realigning the way I hold my head. It's worth s try.
