Seriously injured, the victim of this unusual accident would suffer from multiple crush injuries, even while working on an urban machine. The telescopic urinal goes in and out on the ground for people who need it at night, the man was working on it and, certainly due to a mechanical problem, found himself trapped. Once freed from this urban trap, the man was transported to emergenciesso that we take care of his state of health (source 1).
Crush injuries result from a fairly long compression on all the crushed parts. able to go until necrosisthe compressed muscles remain swollen, cold, even numb after such a powerful crush. The risk of crushing is the first plague on construction sites or in any trade related to the building.
