Most of the content you find online about what doctors allegedly say is unsubstantiated. After graduating from medical school, people do not go around making blanket recommendations about which common fruits and vegetables people should eat and which ones they should avoid, and they certainly do not post about it online. Furthermore, one should be wary of any content that claims to represent the views of a “gut doctor,” as a gastroenterologist would only ever refer to himself or herself as a gastroenterologist in the presence of other physicians. After an exhausting day of work, one of the few comforts available to a physician is that there are other physicians out there who understand what the abbreviations, Latin phrases, and insider nicknames mean.
One insider nickname within the medical profession has made an appearance online recently, and that is trauma season. Summer is trauma season, and not emotional trauma of the kind that young content creators dish about endlessly on TikTok because doing so is the only income-generating activity to which they have access. Traumatic injuries can be gruesome enough to strike fear in the hearts of the most hard-hearted people, the ones who do not believe in emotions at all. If you suffered a preventable traumatic injury during summer recreation, contact a Houma personal injury lawyer.
Beware of the 100 Deadliest Days of Summer
Most people think of summer as the season of fun, and retailers certainly capitalize on this. In the summer, even couch potatoes spend time outdoors hiking, swimming, and riding ATVs. Medical professionals refer to the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day as “trauma season,” because they see more accidental injuries during this time of year than at any other time. These are some of the main causes of traumatic injuries in the summer:
Even if you make a full recovery from an accidental injury, the medical bills can still be disastrous. People who get injured in preventable accidents have the right to seek compensation from the parties legally responsible for the accident by filing an insurance claim or lawsuit. In the case of a drunk driving accident, dram shop liability laws might apply, where the bar that served alcohol to the drunk driver might be responsible. At recreational facilities like ATV parks and water theme parks, the place of business might be responsible under premises liability laws, even if you signed a liability waiver.
