How to Communicate with a Doctor After an Injury
If you have suffered an injury because of someone else’s negligence, one of your next steps should be to seek medical attention. A doctor will evaluate your injury and recommend the appropriate treatment. Here are some tips for communicating with a doctor after an injury.
- Include specific details. When you first see a doctor regarding an injury, be prepared to answer a lot of questions. Your doctor, for example, may want to know how you sustained the injury and what types of symptoms you have been experiencing. It is important to include as many details as possible in your answers. The more your doctor knows, the better he or she can help you. For instance, if you hurt your back during a car accident and feel more pain when you first wake up, let your doctor know.
- Don’t embellish your symptoms. One of the biggest mistakes a Western New York personal injury attorney sees accident victims make is exaggerating their symptoms to their doctor. They might do it in an effort to increase their settlement. However, this can backfire horribly. A doctor can easily figure out through an exam and tests if you have exaggerated your symptoms. If the insurance company finds out about it, it could jeopardize your case.
- Only mention the facts you know. A doctor will ask you many questions about the accident that led to your injuries. If you do not know the answers to some of these questions, do not just make a guess. If your doctor, for example, asks you what speed the other vehicle was going when it hit you and you do not know the answer, do not make something up. If you are wrong about the facts in your accident, the insurance company could question your credibility.
- Be honest about your medical history. During your first appointment with a doctor after your accident, he or she will ask you questions about your medical history. For example, your doctor may ask you if you’ve sustained other injuries in the past and if you suffer from any health conditions. It’s important to be completely honest. If you don’t tell the truth, your doctor can’t give you the proper care. Attempting to hide a previous injury or illness could also hurt your personal injury claim.
