Car accidents happen across the country every day, often ranging in severity. However, even when a car accident seems minor, victims may still suffer from severe injuries. Sometimes, when a person walks away from a minor car accident, they may not be experiencing any symptoms due to the adrenaline and shock they feel after the crash. This can result in injuries being left untreated and worsening over time.

Can You Suffer Severe Injuries After a Minor Car Accident?

Whether you were involved in a minor rear-end, sideswipe, or other type of car accident, you should never underestimate the injuries you may have suffered, regardless of the severity of the accident. Minor crashes may cause very minute damages to the actual vehicle, which could result in airbags not being deployed or minor dents and scratches to the vehicle. However, even minor car accidents can create immense force, causing a victim’s back, neck, or head to get jolted or twisted. 

The soft tissue of these areas of the body can easily result in serious injuries, even if the accident occurred at a low speed. That is why it is crucial to always seek medical attention after being involved in any type of car accident to ensure you get the care you need. If you have suffered severe injuries as a result of a minor accident, you may feel like you will be unable to get fair compensation for your injuries and losses. However, with the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer, you can build a strong claim.
