Common Sports Injuries and How to Recover
Playing sports can be fun, exciting, and challenging. But it can also lead to pain. Many athletes experience injuries at least once in their career. Being sidelined while your body heals is never enjoyable.
Sports injuries can range from a broken bone to a muscle strain. Recovery may take days or several months. Some injuries happen suddenly, while others develop over time due to repeated stress. Here are some of the most common sports injuries and how to recover from them.
1. Ankle Sprain
The ankle is constantly in use, making ankle sprains one of the most common sports injuries.
An ankle sprain can cause pain, swelling, and bruising. Recovery depends on the severity and may take weeks or months. Sprains occur when the foot rolls awkwardly, injuring ligaments.
Tip: Physical therapy can help speed healing and ensure a proper recovery so you can get back in the game feeling your best.
2. ACL Tear
An ACL tear is a serious injury that can sideline an athlete for months. Recovery time varies based on severity and can take up to a year.
Severe tears often require surgery. Even after surgery, rehabilitation is essential to regain strength, stability, and mobility.
3. Hamstring Strain
A hamstring strain affects the muscle that runs from your knee to your glute. It is painful and can take time to heal.
