Do I really need to see a doctor if I feel okay?

Yes, it’s strongly recommended.

Some injuries don’t show symptoms right away. Things like whiplash or internal injuries can take hours or even days to appear.

Seeing a medical professional helps protect your health and also creates a record of any injuries related to the accident. That record can matter later if insurance or legal questions come up.
