In what situations should you seek medical attention after experiencing physical harm?
user
You should seek medical attention if physical harm is severe and includes any of the following symptoms: 1) bleeding that can't be stopped; 2) nausea or vomiting; 3) headache; 4) dizziness; 5) sensitivity to light; or if the injury results in any deformity, swelling, deep bruising, joint dislocation, or numbness. Additionally, if physical harm was caused by an animal attack or as a result of a crime such as rape or abuse, it is also important to seek medical attention. Lastly, it's always best to be safe and proactive and seek medical attention even for moderate injuries for peace of mind.

It is important to seek medical attention if physical harm is severe, if there are bleeding wounds, if pain does not improve after a few days or with at-home treatments such as rest and acetaminophen, if symptoms indicate a more serious condition than anticipated, or if symptoms persist over several days. Seeking medical attention is also advised in instances where injuries or harm appear due to violent contact such as domestic violence.
