Common Sports Injuries, Their Causes And Sports Injury Rehabilitation

People love to play and engage themselves in different sports but with great joy comes great responsibilities. If you or the other players are not careful a slight injury can prove to be lethal. Some injuries are minor and do not require much of your or medical attention but there are certain major injuries that take up a long time to heal even months. These can be treated with the aid of sports injury rehabilitation. 

Sports injury rehabilitation is a kind of physical therapy used to treat people of age groups. It is mainly helpful in treating musculoskeletal system pain, illness or injury. It includes the use of therapeutic interventions, exercise and movement. Sports rehabilitation is beneficial in attaining and maintaining good health and fitness along with helping you recover from injury and reduce chronic pain. That is why we at The Physio Experts, being one of the best physiotherapy centers in Gurgaon, aim to help people return to their highest levels of function.

Let us discuss some common sports injuries and their causes:

  1. ACL
    An anterior cruciate ligament or ACL tear is a sprain or tear in a major ligament in the knee. An ACL tear(s) takes place when the person suddenly stops, changes direction, jumps or lands. This injury commonly occurs at the time of playing soccer, football, basketball and skiing. 
  2. Concussion
    A concussion is a serious brain injury that occurs due to a rapid and sudden back-and-forth movement of the brain and the head. A blow, jolt or bump causes this sudden movement which in turn makes the brain move and bounce in the skull. This results in damaged brain cells, stretching and certain chemical changes inside the brain.
  3. Sprains
    Bones are connected to one another with the help of a band of tissues called fibrous tissues. This band of tissue is known as ligaments. Sprains are tears or stretches in these ligaments.  
  4. Strains
    A strain occurs in muscles and tissues but it is different from sprains. Strains occur in the tissues that connect muscles to bones. 
  5. Shin Splints
    The lower leg has a large bone in the front, called the shin bone or the tibia. Pain along this bone is known as Shin Splints.
  6. Tennis Elbow
    Tennis Elbow is an elbow tendon irritation brought on by excessive forearm muscle use.
