Sports Injury
Sports injury occurs during exercise or while participating in the sports. Sometimes, sports-like injuries also occurs in normal day to day life without the patient being involved in any sporting accident. The injuries can be painful and debilitating, but with proper treatment, most athletes and non-athletes can return to their sport or normal day to day life.
Treatment
Treatment for sports injuries depends on the type and severity of the injury, and may include rest, ice, compression, elevation, physical therapy, and surgery. Rest is often the first step in treating a sports injury, as it allows the body time to heal. Ice can help reduce swelling and pain, while compression and elevation can also help reduce swelling and pain.
Conservative treatment including physical therapy can help restore strength and flexibility to the injured body part. Sometimes, these injuries require Key hole (Arthroscopic) or open surgeries for treatment. These surgeries provide treatment to serious knee and shoulder injuries with excellent outcomes.
