Study Notes
Common Sports Injuries
- Injuries are broadly categorized as acute traumatic or chronic overuse.
- Acute traumatic injuries include: bruising, cuts, abrasions, head injuries, cartilage/meniscal injuries, muscle/tendon/ligament injuries, dislocations, and fractures.
- Chronic overuse injuries include: tendonitis, stress fractures, and back pain.
- Instability is another chronic injury not directly related to overuse, but often related to injury, and common in the shoulder and patella.
Preventing Sports Injuries
- Proper conditioning is essential to prevent injuries.
- Correct technique is key for safety in most sports.
- Appropriate equipment is crucial, and properly maintained.
- Anatomy plays a role in the predisposition to injury, requiring careful training.
- Avoiding overstressing the body, and respecting rest periods are important.
- A gradual build-up in training intensity and frequency, along with warm-up and warm-down exercises, are essential.
