Commotio Cordis, Dr. Drew on Sudden Collapse

Medical experts and commentators are debating whether DeMar Hamlin's collapse was caused by "commotio cordis," a rare blunt-force trauma to the heart. Dr. Drew Pinsky notes that while possible, the presentation of Hamlin standing up before falling is unusual for that diagnosis. Comparisons are made to other sudden collapses, such as comedian Heather McDonald's on-stage fall, raising questions about underlying health signals.
