Common Sports Injuries and How We Treat Them
Sports injuries can occur during regular exercise, organized sports, or fitness activities. They can be acute (occurring suddenly) or chronic (developing over time). Some of the most common sports injuries we treat include:
- Fractures: These are breaks in the bone that can range from small cracks (also known as hairline fractures) to complete breaks in need of casting.
- Sprains: This occurs when the ligaments, which connect bones at a joint, stretch or tear.
- Strains: This occurs when the muscles and/or tendons that connect muscle to bone stretch or tear.
At Legacy ER & Urgent Care, our team of experienced medical professionals uses a comprehensive approach to diagnose and treat sports injuries. We start with a thorough examination, which may include imaging tests to assess the extent of the injury.
Based on the results, we devise a personalized treatment plan based on your symptoms and specific medical needs. Your treatment plan may involve any of the following:
- Casting or Splinting: This is done to immobilize the injured area and allow it to heal.
- Physical Therapy: This is done to restore strength and mobility.
- Pain Management: This helps you cope with discomfort during your recovery process.
With our patient-centered approach, we aim to provide not just immediate relief, but also long-term recovery strategies to help prevent future injuries. We provide patients with advanced treatments tailored toward their specific needs.
