V56.4: Occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle : person injured while boarding or alighting

The ICD-10 code V56.4 refers to an injury that has occurred to an individual who, while either boarding or alighting from a pick-up truck or van, was involved in a collision with a nonmotor vehicle. Nonmotor vehicles encompass a wide range of objects, including but not limited to bicycles, animal-drawn vehicles, or even certain types of machinery. The resulting injuries from such an incident can significantly vary, depending largely on the circumstances and force of the collision. Common injuries might include lacerations, fractures, sprains, or concussion, to more severe issues such as internal bleeding or organ damage. This condition might initially present with pain, swelling, bruising, bleeding, or reduced mobility, and should always be promptly evaluated by a healthcare professional to ascertain the full extent of the injury and to determine the best course of rehabilitation.
