Popis: | All sports come with a risk of injury, and in general, the more contact involved in the sports, the higher the risk of a more significant or traumatic injury. The most frequent types of sports injuries are sprains (ligament injuries), strains (muscle injuries), and stress fractures (bone injuries). In sports medicine, a catastrophic injury is defined as severe trauma to the human head, spine, or brain. Concussions in sports became a major issue in the 2000s as evidence connected repeated concussions and subconcussive hits with chronic traumatic encephalopathy and increased suicide risk. Overuse and repetitive stress injury problems associated with sports include jumper's knee, tennis elbow, and tendinosis. In this review article, we have made an attempt to describe the head to toe spectrum of sports-related injuries including traumatic injuries of the head and face, extremity injuries, soft-tissue injuries, and contact sports-related injuries. |
