Isn't this just saying, "All head injuries are big enough to attend to?" I don't get the paradox, if that's what you're implying exists.

obv this is #2 because it implies that all head injuries should be ignored, even the small ones.

The implication is clear, but it should say "no head injury is too small to treat" or something like that. Even taken literally it wouldn't mean "ignore all head injuries", it would just mean that even if a head injury is really small you can still ignore it, which doesn't make any sense.

"no head injury is too small to ignore"

i'm reading it that head injuries should be ignored, and that even the smallest ones still should be ignored, right?
