Halloween activities should involve light-hearted fun and maybe a little too much candy. What should Halloween NOT involve? Tragic real-life nightmare accidents, long-lasting injuries, or devastating losses. Halloween is a holiday that is celebrated in many different ways, by people of all ages.

Car crashes can cause a wide range of injuries. Sometimes, the harm is apparent, like when a person breaks a bone. Other times, the injuries are less obvious and may take time to discover or diagnose. Fibromyalgia is one of these types of conditions, and it can cause a great deal of pain and psychological stress for victims who develop it after a car crash.
