Uh... next time eat before you go boozing, and make sure you go with friends who'll watch your back, not watch your back as you're being ass-raped.

Seriously? Pop some advils and go see a doctor.

Don't worry, the neck pain will start soon.

make an appointment to see a doctor.

you may not know what kind of harm that's been done until later. You'll want that on record if you need to make any medical claim anyway.

What in the fuck are you doing on this forum? Go talk the police (if you havent already). Go to the hospital. And if your neck hurts bad, get a lawyer.

Jeez, goodness man!

You have no idea. I've known people that have had internal bleeding after accidents and didn't know about it until a few days later when they really felt bad. Get checked out.

Rearend him, and then add strawberries into the mix. But yeah, go to the doctor. The back deals with the spinal cord, which is very serious. Not to mention the possibilities of internal bleeding like said. Need to get that checked out.

Kinda late, but there are two areas of your body you do NOT ever ignore when they are in pain; your feet and your back. Pony up the cash and hit up your local medical zone ASAP.

Okay.. went to the hospitol. Got checked out. Pretty much all they did was squeeze certains points in my back and made me do strtches until they pinpointed where it hurt. They told me to just sleep on it and take some Advil... they told me tommorow when i wake up is going to be hell... then through the next couple days i shoud start feeling better.

I just dont know how to handle the guy that hit me, if I hurt bad tommorow, I geuss he injured me. The guy really doesnt want to go through insurance, and he said he'd pay for damages, but it was of course his fault.

So he didn't give you his insurance information? And a policeman/ambulance wasn't called to the scene? (Police and paramedics would have made sure that both insurance companies were notified)

#1 Report it to your insurance company and they will guide you through the process of ...
#2 Reporting it to the police

Take this man's advice. After being in 2 car accidents myself, and my mother in 4 (all life changing) its best to go to your inssurance company as soon as possible. They will get you in touch with the police, and a care provider so that its on record what your condition is like.

My mom didnt do this the first two times she was in a car accident and just passed it off as nothing. That whiplash brought on a rare condition in the bodies muscles. That was in 94, she got rearended in 96 at 80 mph. That brought on severe problems in the vertibrate of her back. The last one in 2002 crippled her body slowly and each year she has gotten worse.

This last time was serious as she cant work anymore. Even if you dont feel something bad happening, something can happen later on if not taken care of. So please get that taken care of and as a courtesy always go through the insurance company. It might not be your fault, but at least you might be covered by laws in your area.

Why are you asking medical information from random people in an online gaming site forum?

SEE a doctor!

Real doctors aren't as sarcastic or funny as people on this board though.
