Post-Accident Pain & Numbness: Should You See a Doctor?

Question
I had a car accident this afternoon, which I felt fine at that time but now my face is numb, my neck is stiff, my left scapula hurts along with my left shoulder. I can barely move my neck. My left eye hurts as well. Should I go to the doctor?

Answer
Dear Darly,
So sorry to hear about your accident. Often pain from an accident does not become a problem until several days later.

Though I am not a doctor, my suggestion would be seek medical attention if pain has not subsided to rule out any injury that may have not been immediately evident.

Good luck! I hope you feel better soon!
