Common Sports Injuries We Treat

Sports injuries can vary widely depending on the type of sport and the nature of the activity. Common injuries we treat include:

• ACL Tears: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is critical for knee stability. ACL tears often occur during activities that involve sudden stops or changes in direction.
• Meniscus Tears: The meniscus is a cartilage that cushions the knee joint. Tears can happen during twisting movements or heavy impact.
• Rotator Cuff Injuries: The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder. Injuries can result from repetitive overhead motions or acute trauma.
• Labral Tears: The labrum is a cartilage ring that stabilizes the shoulder joint. Tears can cause pain and instability, especially in overhead athletes.
• Hamstring Strains: Common in running sports, hamstring strains occur when the muscles at the back of the thigh are stretched or torn.
• Tennis Elbow: This condition, also known as lateral epicondylitis, results from repetitive stress on the elbow, leading to pain and inflammation.
