My body wasn't hit, I was on a scooter, the scooter was knocked over and I flew to the ground. I was hit from my left side but my right knee was skimmed. I was lying belly down in the street.

ACCEPTED

If your hurting and in pain then yes you should be checked for this. You can go to the ER. Have a friend or one of your parents drive you. If the other person hit you they will be liable for any damage as well and will be required to pay your medical bills. Let me know if you need any further help.

I am not in that much pain. My shoulders and neck ache a little bit, and my knee hurts where it was scraped. The stiff neck could be from having slept weirdly, it didn't start till this morning, 24 hours after the incident. Is it worth going soon or should i wait to see if the stiffness and slight pain go away?
