Hello,

I am sorry about your accident.

Yes, you should seek an immediate attention of a doctor. An x-ray is mandatory to assess it, so going to emergency room or an urgent care clinic would be recommended.

Please feel free for your follow up questions.

I would be happy to assist you further, if you need any more information.

If you have any questions whatsoever, or there is anything I can clarify for you, please temporarily bypass the rating system by clicking “Continue the Conversation” or "Reply."

Clicking either of the lowest two options reflects poorly on me so please reply to me if there is anything else I can do to help before choosing those options. I appreciate your patience while we work out the kinks. It's important to me that you are 100% satisfied with the service I have provided you. Thank you.
