Delayed pain is normal and can occur days or even weeks after the incident. Jewkes emphasizes the importance of seeking medical attention as soon as symptoms arise to document the injury and support any personal injury claim. While insurance companies may challenge claims if treatment is delayed, being honest and obtaining timely care can protect a victim’s rights. Jewkes advises anyone experiencing pain after an accident to get evaluated promptly, starting with urgent care or a primary doctor if specialists aren’t immediately available.
