Shoulder pain is a problem experienced by many car wreck patients, and there are two common explanations.
The first is direct trauma to the shoulder during the wreck. If your shoulder strikes something directly, it can tear the joint capsule. In addition, if you are gripping the steering wheel tightly during a rear-end crash, your torso can lag behind the car, putting stress on your wrists and shoulders.
The second cause of shoulder pain is not as straightforward and can be tougher to diagnose. Injury to the neck or spine can produce stress on the nerve fibers that travel from the spine to your shoulder, arm, and hands. This can be baffling, as the pain or numbness is sensed in one part of your body, while the problem is actually in your spine.
