I got in to a car crash and my chest hurts, is it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Caution: If you experienced a car accident and now have chest pains you need to see your doctor, especially if your chest struck the steering wheel. Minor problems such as a chest wall contusion (bruise) may not need treatment, but occasionally a serious condition like a pericardial injury or an aortic injury represent an emergency.
