You may have been injured and not realized that the injury is causing problems right away. This is especially true when there are no visible signs of injury and can also be true of ladder and scaffolding falls or similar injuries common in the oilfield industry.
It is imperative that if you have any pain, stiffness or other physical complaints following an accident that you seek immediate medical care.
Insurance companies know that some injuries are not readily apparent. They may try to obtain a recorded statement hours after the accident, claiming later on that you were not injured at all or not injured as seriously as you are claiming.
Let the Doctor Decide if You Are Injured or Not
When an injury happens and you need to report it, many of us downplay the injury. Even if everything looks fine on the outside
- you have no apparent fractures or visible cuts, bruises or lacerations
- you still could have sustained a significant and permanent injury.
A long gap between the accident and the time you seek medical treatment may make it more difficult to convince a judge and jury that the accident is the proximate cause of your injury. This does not mean it is impossible, but we do not want to give anyone the opportunity to question the extent and severity of your injuries.
