“Is unrelated pain after an accident possible?”
I got in a very minor car accident a couple weeks ago, though I did go to the hospital for whiplash. That aspect feels better but now my hips and legs are sore. Is this normal?

Muscle and joint pains days or weeks after trauma is not uncommon. But a serious injury that was missed at the hospital visit is possible. You should visit your physician and discuss your concern.
Minor muscle aches after a car accident can be common, but if the pain persists I recommend going to the ER or your Primary Care Physician for X-rays to be sure you do not have a fracture
yes
