Avoid the "Gap in Treatment." If you wait 2 weeks to see a specialist, insurance will claim your injury happened after the accident. Get checked within 72 hours.
Pro-Tip: Start a "Pain Journal" today. Log your pain levels at 8 AM, 2 PM, and 8 PM. Insurance adjusters hate journals because they are hard to disprove.
If you’re bracing for impact, your steering wheel acts like a lightning rod. Kinetic energy travels up your arms and "blows out" in the shoulder. If you have "clicking" or "popping" today, you likely have a labrum tear.
Feeling "fine" right after a crash? That’s your adrenaline talking. It acts as a natural anesthetic, masking micro-tears in your muscles. Don't skip the doctor just because you don't feel the pain yet... it's coming.

X-rays only show bone. If your ER doc said you’re "clear" but you can’t lift your arm, you likely have soft tissue damage that only an MRI can see.
