I had a car accident feb. 2 this year and initially had head fuzzyness, discomfort in my neck and pain at base of my skull. I also slammed my hand on steering wheel. The front of my car t-boned a car that failed to stop at a stop sign. My car is damaged considerably. I did not hit my head or lose consciousness. CT and hand xray in ER were negative. I was sent home with neck collar and hand brace. Two days later I had groin discomfort on the right which radiated to my right hip and lower back. Two days after that I noticed word finding difficulties at times and frequent episodes of stuttering. I saw my doctor yesterday who is having me stay off work for a week and I am to follow up with him on 2/14 to see if I am ready to return to work. Should I be waiting this long?
