What sports injuries do I have?
There are a number of different Sports Injuries that can occur while performing an athletic activity; however, the most common forms of sports injury include:
Shin splints
Shin splints, also known as medial tibial stress syndrome, cause pain along the shinbone. This discomfort comes from too much pressure on the shinbone and its tissues. To prevent this painful condition, it’s important to wear the right shoes, warm up before physical activity, and strengthen your core and legs.

FAQs
Strain or “pulled muscle.”
A strain, or "pulled muscle," happens when the tendon that links your muscle to the bone is stretched too much. Once this happens, the tendon is at a higher risk of being strained again.
Sprain
A sprain happens when the tissue that links bones is overstretched. Similar to a strain, if a sprain happens once, it can easily happen again.
Knee injuries
Your knee is a complex joint and often gets hurt. You might feel a constant pain from your hip to your knee, have trouble moving your knee because you use it a lot, or suffer from serious injuries like an ACL tear.
