Relation to size of accident to severity of injury

Some of the "smallest" accidents can cause the biggest injuries.  It doesn't take a semi truck to hit you head on to cause serious injuries. 

How many times have you heard of a car that was totaled and the driver walked away without any injuries?  When this happens you say, "someone was very lucky."

How many times have you heard of a "fender-bender" and the driver sustained many serious injuries?  I know, when you hear of these you say, "Ya right, this person is milking the system."

Honestly, some of the "smallest" accidents can cause the biggest injuries.  I have spoken of my car accident...it was a little one....for the car that is.  For me....yes I was "looked at" as if I wasn't really hurt (and I want to add that these looks came from a DOCTOR).  It wasn't until additional tests that were run that it was discovered I really was hurt (imagine that).

What is important to know when you are involved in a car accident is that NO MATTER how LITTLE the accident was go see a DOCTOR. 

I am going to suggest something that I wish I had done when I had my car accident.  If you do not require emergency care call an Attorney first....who knew that Personal Injury Attorney's knew Doctors :)

Who knew that a Personal Injury Attorney knows about "medical stuff." 

If you do require emergency care....make sure YOU or someone you trust knows what is going on and what treatment you are being provided.  Emergency Room Doctors are NOT specialists...they are there to SAVE YOUR LIFE.  It is essential that YOU or someone you trust knows what is going on.  When you are able call an Attorney.  A good Personal Injury Attorney will take care of things for you.  Refer you to the BEST Doctors/Chiropractors for YOUR situation. 

If you are in Colorado and you or someone you know is involved in a car accident, no matter how small I highly recommend Zeisler & Associates, Attorney's at Law, PC.  I can personally tell you that Carol took EXCELLENT care of me throughout my ordeal.  You get the large firm strength with the small firm treatment.
