V10: Pedal cyclist injured in collision with pedestrian or animal
The group of conditions under the title "Pedal cyclist injured in collision with pedestrian or animal" pertains to injuries sustained by an individual while riding a bicycle and colliding with a pedestrian or an animal. These injuries can vary greatly, ranging from minor scrapes and contusions to more serious conditions including fractures, head injuries, and even internal trauma. The cause of such injuries is the impact resulting from the collision. In these cases, the speed at which the cyclist was moving, the size of the pedestrian or animal, and whether protective equipment like helmets were being used can influence the severity of the injuries. Symptoms depend on the nature of the injury and can include pain, swelling, deformity, unconsciousness, confusion, or difficulty moving the affected region. The progression of these conditions may either resolve spontaneously with good supportive care, or may require more advanced medical intervention depending on the injury's severity.
