After an accident, consistent medical care is critical. If you stop treating for weeks or months, the insurance company will often argue that your injuries must not have been serious or that you fully recovered.
Even if life gets busy or your symptoms temporarily improve, failing to follow your doctor’s recommendations can significantly reduce the value of your claim. Consistent treatment creates a clear medical record showing that your injuries are real and ongoing.
