Symptoms of Underlying Car Accident Injuries

Samer Habbas, Esq

Car accident injuries may not always be obvious in the immediate aftermath of an accident. There isn’t always a direct correlation between the severity of the injuries suffered and the severity of the accident. Although you may think that you are fine and have not suffered any injuries following an automobile accident, it is always important to immediately seek medical attention after a collision.

Certain injuries, such as internal injuries and traumatic brain injuries, may remain without any outward signs or symptoms until several days or even weeks after the accident. For this very reason alone, you should make it a priority to visit your physician, or even the hospital depending on the severity of your accident, if you have been involved in a motor vehicle collision.

Signs of Hidden Car Accident Injuries

Even if you feel fine after a car accident, it is still in your best interest to be fully examined by a medical professional to make sure that you have not suffered any injuries. Below are some signs of personal injuries that may remain hidden or asymptomatic for days or even weeks after a car accident:

Dizziness and severe headaches – dizziness and headaches may be an indication of serious head injuries, including traumatic brain injuries
Numbness or soreness of the back – these symptoms are serious and may be indicative of upper and lower back problems, including spinal cord trauma
Nausea or other internal symptoms – these symptoms may be indicative of internal organs

If you have noticed any of these symptoms after a car accident, it may be indicative that you have suffered serious injuries. It is imperative that you seek immediate medical attention. Unfortunately, not all car accident injuries display visible signs of injuries. You should record any type of pain that you may have after an accident and report to your medical professional.

Your Attorney Can Help

An experienced attorney can help you if you have been seriously injured in a car accident. He can provide you with a list of healthcare professionals for the injuries you have suffered. A good attorney can also help you obtain compensation for the following items that are related to the accident:

Past and future medical expenses
Loss of wages
Loss of earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Emotional and mental trauma
Any other out of pocket expenses related to the accident

In order to help your attorney obtain the full financial damages that you deserve, you need to help your attorney prove your case by obtaining detailed documentation of your accident. The better prepared your attorney is, the more likely it is that he will obtain the full value of your claim.
