Hoverboards, Emergency Room Injuries and Head Trauma
An emergency room doctor in Austin reports that hoverboards have become the number one cause of injury in local ERs. While media coverage has focused on the devices catching fire, the primary medical concern is massive head trauma and broken bones from falls. The doctor warns parents against purchasing the devices due to the high risk of severe facial and cranial injuries.
