At the time, a minor fender bender may not seem like a big deal. But did you know that you could have sustained serious injuries to your body that may not even show up in X-rays?
Your body is a finely tuned machine and likes to stay in balance. When it is subjected to the forces of a crash, all of your musculoskeletal structures are affected. Over time, these changes can cause debilitating pain and even permanent muscle and bone damage.
When you’re in an accident, it’s important that you see someone as soon as possible. In the vast majority of cases, your visit will be covered by your insurance or the party that is at fault. That means you can get the treatment you need without any out of pocket expenses or waiting for a settlement.
Time is of the essence. Days, weeks and even months can pass before you even begin to notice any injury you’ve sustained. You’ll first see the symptoms – swelling, decreased mobility, then pain. Over time, it will become worse and if left unchecked may not be reversible.
Make an appointment immediately.
