Should I Still See A Doctor After A Minor Car Accident?

Why You Should Still See a Doctor After a Minor Auto Accident

You should still see a doctor after a minor wreck because injuries are still common, and even likely, in low-speed car accidents that cause little to no damage to the cars.

This is because people rarely see an accident coming before being struck, resulting in no time to prepare and brace themselves for impact.

So, we always recommend getting checked by a professional physician or chiropractor after a wreck to be certain that you do not have any underlying injuries that are not presenting symptoms yet due to the release of adrenaline following the accident.
