Answer 1

The most accurate contrast in terms of treatment differences between physical injuries and mental health issues is:

Physical injuries can sometimes be treated in one visit; mental health issues are generally treated over time.

This reflects the common reality that many physical injuries can be assessed and treated in a single medical visit (such as a sprain or cut) while mental health issues often require ongoing therapy, medication management, and support, which typically unfold over a longer duration.
