Even though you may feel fine after a car accident, it is a good idea to see a doctor after a motor vehicle accident. Some injuries are obvious:  there is a lot of blood or broken bones. Meanwhile, some injuries, like soft tissue injuries or memory problems can take weeks or months to show up. Just because you do not hurt right now, doesn’t mean that you are uninjured. What seems like a mild right now may become a big problem in future.  Your doctor may advise getting additional scans or tests for signs of potential internal injuries, hairline fractures, or concussions. Your doctor will provide two critical components for your personal injury case: 1) look after your health and 2) document any areas of concern, for a medical report you may need later. Without a medical report, your insurance provider will find it easy to dismiss your claim.   A Toronto car accident lawyer at our office has seen signs of PTSD, anxiety, and other mental health issues in the aftermath of a very severe car accident.
