Injuries can occur every day while playing sports or during routine exercise. Sports medicine is responsible for physical fitness and treatment and prevention of sports injuries. Injuries happen quickly, in one motion, or over time with repetitive movements. Often, they can’t and shouldn’t be ignored. Whether you’re a young, ambitious athlete or simply trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle, a sports injury can be frustratingly debilitating.
