V31: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle

The condition categorized by the ICD-10 code V31 refers to injuries sustained by an individual riding a three-wheeled motor vehicle involved in a collision with a pedal cycle. This can compass a broad array of injuries with varying severity, dependent on factors such as speed at the collision point, the protective gear worn by the individual, the angle of impact, and the physical condition of the person involved. Common injuries could include fractures, open wounds, internal organ injuries, or even traumatic brain injuries if the rider was not wearing a helmet. Symptoms will accordingly vary based on the nature and severity of the injuries but can often include pain, swelling, visible deformity, bruising, or bleeding. Sometimes, in the case of internal injuries or concussions, symptoms may not be immediately apparent but can manifest over time.
