it was a collision, report it.
claim for minor injuries and then learn from your lesson and don't ride within the door zone of a car. the driver is legally responsible for the car and its doors, but taking the moral high ground but being in pain is not a great strategy.
obligatory have you considered cycle training comment

AFAIK It is an offence to open a door in anybody's path.
-
Yes report to the police, and follow up.

got doored at wall/livpool street on my way home yesterday.
was filtering on the very left, lights turn green and dumb bitch decided it was the perfect time to get out of the back seat opening the door right in front of me.
obviously she had that cunty face on expressing 'you shouldn't have ridden there' and said she's not used to seeing cyclists on the streets of London - I was speechless.
suprisingly minor injuries, bike is OK, but is there a protocol for these accidents if no serious harm is caused?
