impingement syndrome
Impingement syndrome is inflammation of tendons caught in a narrow space within the shoulder joint.
There are several ways to injure your shoulder, including falls, lifting heavy objects, overuse, sports activities, and traumatic incidents such as dislocations or fractures. Common shoulder injuries include sprains and strains, rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, and shoulder dislocation. It is important to take proper precautions and seek medical attention if you have sustained a shoulder injury.

Whiplash (traumatic cervical spine ligamentous injury) and shoulder impingement ( a syndrome of pain and limited motion secondary to anatomic constraints between the rotator cuff and the acromioclavicular complex) are two distinct clinical entities. One does not cause the other. The underlying question posed is to know if there is a causal relationship between spine and shoulder pain. That is a question answered by careful history questionning, clinical examination, and eventually imaging tests.
