Could The Upper Back Pain Be Due To Accident?

Hi i was in a car accident 5 days ago. The impact was quite hard resulting in the car being written off because of the damage caused. I felt fine health wise that day. The following day I had muscle aches but nothing that concerned me. Today I have some upper back pain, nothing to discomforting but its there. Could this be as a result from the accident?

Should i see a doctor to be sure and will they be able to determine this for me?
