Treating sports injuries with the help of our Wayne, PA therapist
The following are the most common types of sports injuries:
Knee Injuries
The knee is the most complex joint in your body, and it is also one of the most commonly injured. Knee problems can range from minor aches and pains running from your hip to your knee to more serious issues such as an ACL rupture.
Shin splints
Shin splints are pain caused by tension on the shinbone and the underlying connective tissue. They are excruciatingly painful and frequently incapacitating, but they can be avoided by wearing appropriate footwear, warming up before exercise, and stretching.
Strain or “pulled muscle”
When the tendon that connects the muscle to the bone is stretched beyond its breaking point, this results in a strain, also known as a “pulled muscle.” After being overstretched, the tendon is more likely to be strained again.
Sprain
A sprain occurs when a ligament connecting one bone to another is overstretched. This could be a recurring problem.
