What To Do For Pain In The Arms, Blurry Vision And Tingling Due To An Accident?
Hii, I m a 17 year old girl who was just in her first car accident about 6 hours ago. There was no damage to the vehicles so I didn t get the people s insurance who rear-ended me or called 911, but shortly after I got back into my car my head and neck started hurting. My mom said it was whiplash so I looked up what whiplash meant. I then realized my left arm is hurting and occasionally tingling as well and my vision is progressively getting blurrier. The website also said to call 911 right away if I feel those symptoms but I didn t and now its 3:01 AM and too late to go to the doctor. I am scared that this might be worse than I thought and am not even sure if I should go to bed. What should I do?

Hello,
To go late is better not going at all. You are supposed to get some tests now so head to the ER.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
