Introduction

Sports injuries can happen to anyone—from weekend warriors to elite athletes. Whether it’s a twisted ankle, a pulled muscle, or a painful joint that just won’t settle, these injuries can throw off your routine and stop you from performing at your best.

Signs & Symptoms

  • Pain during or after activity

  • Swelling or bruising around a joint or muscle

  • Restricted movement or joint stiffness

  • Muscle weakness or instability

  • Ongoing soreness or recurring niggles

Common Causes

  • Sudden impact or trauma during sport

  • Overuse from repetitive movements

  • Poor training technique or biomechanics

  • Lack of warm-up or inadequate recovery

  • Returning to sport too soon after a previous injury
