During a family vacation, the Densmores were struck by a
transfer truck which destroyed
their car. Luckily, the family survived with what seemed like
superficial wounds, except for Mrs.
Densmore who appeared to suffer from ‘whiplash injury’. As the days
passed, Mrs. Densmore
began to suffer neuromuscular symptoms. She exhibited a profound
tilting of the head to the
right side of her body. Other tests by an orthopedic physician
indicated partial paralysis of the
right sternocleidomastoid muscle. Subsequent x-rays revealed two
displaced cervical vertebrae
that were placing pressure on the rootlets of one of her cranial
nerves. After surgery to realign
the vertebrae and physical therapy, the symptoms partially
disappeared within weeks and were
almost entirely reversed within a few weeks.
question:
4. In Case Study 4, Mrs. Densmore only suffered issues to her sternocleidomastoid muscle. What other problems might be seen in someone with damage to that nerve?
