Understanding Sports Injuries:
Sports injuries can occur as a result of sudden trauma, overuse, or poor technique during physical activity. These injuries can affect muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, and joints, leading to pain, swelling, decreased range of motion, and impaired function. Common sports injuries we treat include:
- Sprains and strains
- Ligament tears (ACL, MCL, etc.)
- Muscle tears or contusions
- Tendonitis or tendinopathy
- Fractures or dislocations
- Overuse injuries (e.g., runner’s knee, tennis elbow)
