What Causes Pain And Soreness In Left Side Of The Stomach?

I got in a car accident today and i don t really want to go to the doctors because i feel just fine. I went to softball practice and everything. My only problems is my left side of my stomach kind of hurts if i bend over or push on it. Also, when i went to the bathroom my stool was red-looking. There was no blood or anything. I really don t want to go to the hospital but i also don t want to have a bigger problem and not do something about it. Any easy suggestions as to what might be wrong? Maybe its just from the impact or airbag or something? I hope its not a bigger issue
