As many of our loyal readers know, we occasionally delve into the world of sports for matters that may be of interest to injured workers in Pennsylvania. For example, we have brought up injury problems facing a football player for the Philadelphia Eagles as well as a hockey player for the Philadelphia Flyers.
Perhaps no injury is seen more often in football and hockey these days, however, than concussions. Indeed, as Melissa Gilbert can attest, even Dancing with the Stars can lead to such an injury.
Typically, though, a professional athlete, or an actress, is not doubted about whether an injury has been suffered. Treatment is readily given and the condition is taken very seriously. Often, the injured worker in PA does not have such a luxury.
