SPORTS INJURY

Sports injuries are diverse in terms of the mechanism of injury, how they present in individuals, and how the injury should be managed. Defining exactly what a sports injury is can be problematic and definitions are not consistent. Verhagen et al. (2010) highlighted that definitions of sports injury can be discussed in both theoretical and operational terms.

Sports injuries treatment

The RICE method is a common treatment regimen for sports injuries. It stands for:

 

rest

ice

compression

elevation

This treatment method is helpful for mild sports injuries. For best results, follow the RICE method within the first 24 to 36 hours after the injury. It can help reduce swelling and prevent additional pain and bruising in the early days after a sports injury. Here’s how to follow RICE, plus a recovery timeline.

 

Both over-the-counter and prescription medications are available to treat sports injuries. Most of them provide relief from pain and swelling.

If your sports injury looks or feels severe, make an appointment to see your doctor. Seek emergency care if the injured joint shows signs of:

 

severe swelling and pain

visible lumps, bumps, or other deformities

popping or crunching sounds when you use the joint

weakness or inability to put weight on the joint

instability

Also seek emergency attention if you experience any of the following after an injury:

 

difficulty breathing

dizziness

fever

Serious sports injuries can require surgery and physical therapy. If the injury doesn’t heal within two weeks, contact your doctor for an appointment.
