Tension, stress, and adrenaline can cause aches and pains after an auto accident.  However, there is a difference between temporary pain and lifelong chronic pain.  Many auto accident injuries require continuous physical or occupational therapy, surgery, and pain management to treat the underlying problem.  A person will often compensate for the damage in their body by making another part of their body work harder, this can contribute to long-lasting pain at the injury site.
