athletic injuries

Athletic injuries are damages to the body caused by physical activity or sports. They include muscles strains, ligament sprains, fractures, and overuse injuries from repetitive motion. These injuries often result from sudden impacts, improper technique, overtraining, or inadequate rest. Symptoms can include pain, swelling, limited movement, or weakness. Proper diagnosis, treatment, and rest are essential for recovery. Preventing injuries involves warming up, using correct form, wearing appropriate gear, and allowing time for recovery. Understanding these injuries helps athletes and active individuals minimize downtime and maintain safe participation in sports and exercise.
