Involved in a rollover accident, now i can't lift my head from lying position. Whiplash or something else?

I have to use my hands to lift my head from a lying position so I can turn over in bed.

Is this a sign of whiplash or possible other damage?

I have all the other signs of whiplash, but also cannot lift my head straight up if it's resting on anything.

Had x-rays done, nothing abnormal there.

It sounds like you definitely have some kind of spinal injury, Could be a small issue, but it could be something worse. Go see a doctor immediately. Prolonging it could result in worsening the injury, and could even lead to paralysis in some cases depending on the extent of the spinal injury.

You have Dystonia. god Bless you and I am not a Dcotor.God Bless you and hope that you feel better.

sounds painful, go see a doctor and get some xrays, mri's, you may need a brace or surgery.

get it checked by a doctor (this definately should be done), if all checks out let a chiropractor or massage therapist help get you back to where you should be
