Types of Sports Injuries
  • Soft tissue injuries- Bruises are the most common
    example of soft tissue injuries. Damage to soft
    tissues causes inflammation and takes a longer
    time to recover.
  •  
  • Hard tissue injuries- The fractures in bones and
    teeth are examples of hard tissue injuries. Such
    injuries often take more time to bring the
    athlete to get back to his normal routine.
  • Overuse injuries- Overuse injuries may cause pain
    in the affected areas during activity.
  • Head and neck injuries- Concussion is a mild
    brain injury which is a common example of head
    and neck injury.

Prevention of Sports Injuries
  • As long as you dont experience any serious
    injury like swelling, bruising, inflammation, you
    can rely on icing and home remedies to cure it.
    But in case of serious tissue damage, you cant
    just rely on pain killers to cure it. Ignoring
    your pains and strains in muscles will not do any
    good for your daily sports activity. Rather you
    may end up tearing or bursting your soft tissues
    if you do not stop your physical activity at the
    very moment of severe pain. Generally, every
    athlete takes little aches and bruises lightly
    which further develop into a major ailment. In
    case of serious sports injury, we would suggest
    you consult a sports medicine specialist for
    better treatment.
