Yes. Many serious injuries—especially concussions, soft-tissue injuries, and spinal conditions—don’t fully show symptoms right away. Adrenaline and shock can mask pain for hours or even days.

Prompt medical care:

• Protects your health
• Creates documentation linking the injury to the incident
• Prevents insurers from arguing your injuries weren’t caused by the accident

Waiting too long often gives insurance companies ammunition to dispute or minimize your claim.
