As a parent, you must be aware of the potential for injuries when your children play sports. There are many common childrens sports injuries that can occur, and some of them can be pretty serious.
What should I know about this?
It’s essential to understand what these injuries are, how they can be prevented, and where you can go for help if your children do suffer an injury.
One of the most common children’s injuries is “overuse injury”. This type of injury typically occurs when a young athlete puts too much stress on either muscles or joints such as the knees, elbows or shoulders. This constant stress can cause inflammation and pain in the affected area with possible long-term damage if not treated properly. To prevent overuse injuries, children should take regular breaks from physical activity and ensure that their bodies are well-rested before engaging in any strenuous activities.
