Traumatic Injuries in Sports

Traumatic injuries in sports refer to physical harm that occurs suddenly during athletic activities. In the context of sports dermatology, these injuries can involve the skin—like cuts, abrasions, or bruises from falls or collisions. They can also include more severe issues like skin infections that develop from open wounds. Proper care is crucial for healing and preventing complications, such as scarring or infections. Athletes should be aware of their skin's health, as maintaining it is essential for performance and overall well-being in sports.
