Whether you are on the field, court, rink, or even just running around outside sport injuries surround you. Sports medicine is very important in sports because if it wasn’t there players would be getting hurt more and they might not heal correctly. Without it players would be getting injured more and wouldn’t have the proper way to treat themselves. To start it off, sports medicine isn’t just antibiotics there are lots of physical treatments. When a player gets hurt they take antibiotics, but they are also exercising whatever they injured to keep that in shape.

The more you exercise the injured area after it is healed the better off you’ll be playing in sports when you get back. Even though it stinks getting injured and you you want to go back and play you can’t rush your body or you are just going to hurt yourself more and keep you from playing even longer. “Treatment is similar for most overuse injuries – rest and rehabilitation” Dr. Daryl Rosenbaum said.

    When a pitcher makes their usual throwing motion, it puts valgus stress on the arm--their elbow bends in a direction the body isn’t intended to go. With the velocity and force that a major league pitcher has behind each of their pitches, that stress on the body rises to levels where the forearm wants to flee the body. The reason it doesn’t is because of a small connection of ligaments. Once they snap after years of stress, they require reconstructive surgery that entails a lengthy rehabilitation stint.

Out of curiosity, I have asked the injured athletes if they knew anyone who helped treat their torn ligaments and hyperextended muscles. Routinely, they all responded, “a physiatrist." This memory was how I first learned about the most interesting career in the medical field.

    But these thoughts were short lived as someone bumped my foot, causing another gut wrenching streak of pain to shoot up my leg. After I made it back home, I attempted to nurse my ankle to the best of ability but my lack of experience with injuries made it difficult.

At the risk of redundancy, social connection is critical when an athlete is sidelined. Recovery periods may be a good time to pursue alternative endeavors and take advantage of some down time that can be hard to come by when training is in full force. In addition to physical issues related to keeping oneself well as an athlete, it is critical to remember that emotional and psychological well-being is also protective against physical injury.
