The 8 Most Common Sports Injuries for Athletes

Whether you’re an all-american or a pickup game ringer, anyone can suffer an injury. Here are the ailments you need to know about. Plantar fasciitis A painful condition that comes about when the tendon that runs along the arch of the foot becomes strained, making it feel tight and not as pliable as it should be. Symptoms vary, but many with the condition report feeling dull or even sharp pain during every step. Ankle sprain An injury that occurs when the ankle rolls, twists or turns in an awkward way. Acl strain An anterior cruciate ligament (acl) strain is the over-stretching or tearing of the acl in the knee. A tear may be partial or complete. Quad strains Quad strains or quadriceps strain is a tear in one of the quadriceps muscles at the front of the thigh. It can range from a mild discomfort to a full blown tear of most of the muscle resulting in severe pain and inability to walk. Hamstring pull Hamstring injuries happen when the muscles are stretched too far .Sprinting and any other sport that requires a ton of stress on the legs put participants at risk of hamstring pulls. Running, jumping and kicking sports bring about the most hamstring injuries Hip bursitis Hip bursitis causes pain over the outside of the upper thigh. The condition refers to a bursa, which is a fluid filled sac that makes it possible for efficient motion between two uneven surfaces. When the bursal sac over the outside of the hip becomes inflamed, it can’t do its job effectively, making it painful to move. Low back pain Any number of things can cause low back pain, a condition most active people are probably familiar with to varying degree. Most of the injuries to the lower back occur from improper form in lifting or other exercise, trauma, sports or even just sleeping awkwardly. Tennis elbow/elbow pain Tennis elbow is a condition brought on by the overuse of arm, forearm and hand muscles. It refers to an injury of the muscle and tendon area around the outside of the elbow.
