If I have a headache that isn’t getting better, should I see a doctor?

A relentless headache could mean many different things. However, a headache that does not lessen in severity could be a sign of a brain injury. When it comes to injuries of the brain, seeing a doctor should not be delayed. In the hours or days after your accident, the injury could worsen. (If you are diagnosed with a brain injury, do not delay in contacting our Palm Beach car accident lawyer.) You may want to keep an eye out for any of these signs, as it may mean you have sustained a brain injury:

• Blurry vision
• Nausea and/or vomiting
• Trouble remembering recent events
• Clear fluid coming from ears or nose
• Insomnia
• Mood swings
• Difficulty absorbing new information
• Slurred speech
• Challenges understanding others
• Cognitive or physical impairments

What if I was hospitalized and cannot pay my medical bills?

This may be particularly true for those who are critically injured and need to be hospitalized. If this describes your circumstances, you could greatly benefit from meeting with a Palm Beach car accident lawyer about your legal options. If the other driver was at-fault, you may be entitled to receive financial compensation for your losses, related expenses, medical costs, and vehicle damages.
