Is Bruised, Partially Numb, Painful Shin Due To Hit Against Dashboard Concerning?
Hello, I was in a head on collision a couple days ago. My shins hit the dash due to how close I sit when I drive. They were the first things I noticed hurt really bad. They are badly bruised and partially numb. I haven't seen a doctor, is it worth it to go. I don't want to show up for just a bruise. Thank you!
if u had head on collision than u must c the dr. what was impact/force /speedof vehicle. for simple bruise it is ok but if u have numbness which persists for more than 10-15 min u should c dr.
