Common types of sports injuries

Many different injuries can occur while performing athletic activity.

However, the most common forms of sports injury include:

Sprain

When a ligament linking one bone to another is stretched beyond its limits, a sprain occurs. When it happens one time, it’s more likely to happen again.

Shin splints

Medial tibial stress syndrome is the medical term for shin splints. Usually, this pain is caused by tension exerted on the shinbone and the underlying connective tissues.

Shin splints are painful and frequently debilitating, but by wearing proper footwear, warming up before exercise, and strengthening the muscles of the heart and leg, you can prevent them.

Knee injuries

Your knee is the most complicated joint in the body and it is also one of the areas that get injured most often.

Knee injuries can include dull aches that extend from your hip to your knee, injuries that make moving the knee painful, or more serious injuries such as an ACL tear.

Strain or “pulled muscle”

A strain is also known as a “pulled muscle,” and it occurs when a tendon that connects the muscle to the bone extends the muscle beyond its limits. The tendon is more likely to be strained again after it has been overstretched.
