Sports injuries are injuries that occur during athletic activities or exercise. They can range from minor to severe and can affect various parts of the body.

• Sprains: Injuries to ligaments (the tough bands connecting bones in a joint). Commonly occur in the ankle, knee, and wrist.
• Strains: Injuries to muscles or tendons (the fibers that connect muscles to bones). Common areas include the hamstrings and lower back.
• Fractures: Broken bones, which can vary from small cracks to complete breaks.
• Dislocations: When bones are forced out of their normal positions in a joint.
• Contusions: Bruises caused by direct blows or impacts.

• Tendinitis: Inflammation of a tendon, often due to repetitive motion. Commonly affects the elbow (tennis elbow), shoulder, and knee.
• Stress Fractures: Small cracks in the bone due to repetitive stress, often seen in runners and athletes who engage in high-impact sports.
• Shin Splints: Pain along the shin bone (tibia), common in runners and athletes who perform frequent, high-intensity training.
• Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursae (small fluid-filled sacs that cushion bones, tendons, and muscles near joints).

• Improper Training: Overtraining, sudden increases in activity intensity or duration, and inadequate warm-ups or cool-downs.
• Poor Technique: Incorrect form during exercises or sports activities.
• Inadequate Equipment: Using improper or ill-fitting gear.
• Environmental Factors: Playing on uneven surfaces or in unsuitable weather conditions.
• Previous Injuries: Past injuries can increase the risk of re-injury.
