Don't ignore those nagging aches and pains. Early detection and treatment of sports injuries are crucial for a swift and successful recovery. Ignoring them can lead to chronic problems and even end your athletic career.
Here are some signs to watch out for:
Pain: This is the most obvious sign of an injury. It can be sharp, dull, aching, throbbing, or constant.
Swelling: This indicates inflammation and tissue damage.
Loss of range of motion: You may find it difficult to move the injured area through its full range of motion.
Instability: The joint may feel loose or wobbly.
Bruising: This can occur after a direct blow to the area.
Numbness or tingling: This may indicate nerve damage.
Weakness: The injured area may feel weak or difficult to use.
If you experience any of these signs, it's important to see a doctor or sports professional chiropractor right away.
