Personal Injury Payments??

Hi, I had a car accident last year which was not my fault. I had a few various injuries, whiplash, back pain, minor head injury. The main one was a broken collar bone.
I was off work for the best part of a year because the bones healed in the wrong place. I eventually had to undergo an operation which left me with a very large and visable scar on my chest/ shoulder area. It has now been over a year and although I am back to work, my back is still giving me alot of pain.
I'm looking to hear from anyone who might know roughly how much I can expect to receive from the other parties insurers. I have already been paid out for my car (which was written off) and I am awaiting compensation for my loss of earings, but I have no idea what I may get for the injury and disfigurment.
I would be grateful for any ideas as I am now seriously needing to get my life back.
Thanks

Is this a troll?
Generally, the posts that make me as angry as this are ones written by trolls.0
