At What Point Do I Need to See a Doctor After a Car Accident?

“Oh, I’m fine. It was just a small accident. I don’t need a doctor.” Have you ever heard someone say this after getting in a car accident? Unfortunately, many people think that they don’t need to see a doctor after a car accident because they believe they didn’t get any injuries from the accident, or think their small injury will go away with time. Although it may seem silly to see a doctor right away, research studies show that nearly half of auto accident victims continue to suffer from accident-related symptoms for years following their accident. If you don’t see a doctor right away, you may be causing yourself even more pain and expenses down the road! One of the very first things you should do after getting into a car accident is see a doctor, even if you’re not sure if you sustained an injury or not.
