Whiplash And Concussion, Burning Sensation In Limbs, Face And Scalp, Pinched Nerve

I was in a car accident 1 month ago and had whiplash and concussion . My face, scalp , arms, legs and the back side of the roof of my mouth is numb and burning. I went to a neurologist that didn t seem too concerned but is supposed to schedule a MRI because it could be a pinched nerve. What do you think.

Hi,Mkstevens,
Welcome to HCM,
As you had crash with concussion it is better to go for MRI to rule out any problem in the brain and any injury to the nerves causing numbness and burning on various parts.
Ok and bye.
