Football-related Injuries
Football-related injuries commonly occur due to the sport's physical nature, which involves running, tackling, and sudden movements. Common injuries include sprains (often of the ankle or knee), fractures (broken bones), and strains (muscle injuries). Concussions, caused by impacts to the head, are a serious concern. Injuries can result from collisions with players or the ground, as well as overuse from repetitive motions. Proper training, protective gear, and awareness of safe play can help reduce the risk. Recovery often requires rest, rehabilitation, and sometimes medical intervention to ensure players return safely to the game.
