A common and disturbing problem some people face after an auto accident is not recognizing their injuries until hours or even days after the incident. These injuries may either go unnoticed because of internal bodily harm or because of adrenaline that clouds a person’s ability to feel pain immediately after an accident. If a person is uncertain, they may still want to be examined by a doctor. If a person receives an examination after an accident that reveals an injury, they may want to consider a lawsuit to have their injury treatment costs covered.
