Determining the extent of your injuries immediately following a car accident can be difficult. Even if you feel fine, adrenaline may be masking the severity of your injuries, making it hard to accurately assess your condition. Serious injuries are common after car accidents, and if you have been hurt by a negligent driver, seeking emergency medical care is crucial. Delaying medical treatment can not only harm your health but also impact your ability to receive fair compensation. Insurance companies are likely to scrutinize any delays in treatment, making it harder for you to obtain the compensation you deserve.
