You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

You would generally have to prove a long term injury in order to collect any monies. Airlines are known for being tight on making any payments to passengers. You may have better luck asking for flight vouchers which do not cost the airline any out of pocket monies. Most attorneys would not take on an injury case for any soft tissue injury such as this as the cost to try to prove any damages could exceed any recovery.
