Auto Accident Injuries Q&A

What are common auto accident injuries?

Auto accidents can cause a variety of injuries that range from mild to life-threatening. These injuries can include:

  • Cuts
  • Burns
  • Fractures
  • Whiplash
  • Soft tissue tears
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Internal organ injuries

Bridge City Family Medical Clinic offers comprehensive care for auto accident injuries in adults and children. The medical team uses evidence-based treatments to support your recovery and prevent additional complications.

The providers also have extensive experience documenting the medical treatment you receive to support any legal claims you have for the accident.

When should I seek medical care for auto accident injuries?

Even minor fender benders can have a significant impact on your physical health. Often, an auto accident can put your body into a state of shock, and symptoms may not show up until later.

Go to the nearest hospital or call 911 if you have head injuries, severe bleeding, or other serious issues after an accident.

You can schedule a medical evaluation at Bridge City Family Medical Clinic soon after any auto accident, even if you’re not having pain. The medical team can assess your overall health and ensure you don’t have internal injuries.

If you do have pain or other symptoms, the providers may order blood tests, X-rays, or other diagnostic tests to identify its cause.
