Chiropractic Care to Treat
Common Sports Injuries
Whether it is intramural, city league, recreational or professional, sports are a vibrant and integral part of our culture. Even in youth sports the numbers of participants are rising as now nearly 30 million children and adolescents participate in youth sports in the United States, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC). However, with those who participate in sports, comes the risk of a sports-related injury.
The most common sports injuries are sprains, strains, and fractures.
- A sprain occurs when the ligament is extended further than its limit.
- A strain happens when a tendon is stretched too far.
Both ligaments and tendons are like a coil or spring that if they are stretched too far they will become damaged and are sometimes referred to as a pulled muscle.
A fracture is a broken bone. On average a person experiences two fractures or broken bones over a lifetime.
Not So Obvious Injuries
Other Potential Types of Sports Injuries
In any kind of physical contact sport, collision sport or one with excessive use of exertion, every part of the body is affected. Some of the most common locations where injuries to the body occur are:
Head
Concussion
Neck & Spine
Whiplash, Neck Strain, Overextension
Back & Spine
Slipped Disc, Stress Fracture, Nerve Damage, Muscle Strain
Legs, Ankles & Feet
Hyperextension, Shin Splints, Sprained Ankle, Pulled ACL/MCL/PCL, Sprain or Tear, Pulled Groin, Pulled Hamstring, Fracture
These types of sports injuries can cause mild discomfort to very intense pain, and any type of sports injury can lead to a loss of time in daily activities as well as time away from the sport.
