What to do after sustaining a head injury in a bicycle accident

Bronx Personal Injury > Bike Accidents  > What to do after sustaining a head injury in a bicycle accident

New York is one of the most populated places in the nation. While many people prefer to get around New York by driving or taking a taxi, you’ll also see a lot of bicycles on this state’s roads. As is the case with pedestrian drivers, bicyclists also risk being in an accident while on the road. Follow these steps if you suffer a head injury while on your bicycle.

Get a medical evaluation

You likely know to get a medical evaluation after a severe accident occurs. However, in less severe bicycle accidents, someone might think they sustained no injuries when that’s not the case. In certain cases, the side effects of a head injury won’t reveal themselves to you as easily as a cut or scrape might.

Attend all follow-up appointments

Head injuries can happen in various ways. Because of that, medical professionals often want to conduct a range of tests to fully understand the extent of your damages. To do this, you’ll likely need to attend a series of follow-up appointments. Don’t hurt your recovery by not attending all of your scheduled check-ups. While it might be inconvenient, these medical visits are crucial to help you get back to normal.
