skinnydoc said:An ethical physician would not support your claim, but would state that the neck problems may or may not have been as a result of the accident, unless you had radiologic evidence immediately following the accident that clearly demonstrated damage. So this tactic may not work because one would expect the other side would bring in their medical experts to refute any false claims.
i never mentioned ethics in my suggestion.... aside from the ethics of the insurance trying to force him to take a loss to their gain, please explain to someone as medically un-educated as myself how whiplash (lets say, minor whiplash?) shows itself radiologically...i would think the typical neck injury after a minor to moderate vehicle crash only involves the soft stuff like skin and whatever other squishy tissues are in the area between the head and chest, and wouldn't show up much on xray..?
