Common Sports Injuries Treated at Injury Health Center

Some of the most common sports injury examples that we see in our clinic include:

• Knee Injuries: Knee injuries are common and can be serious. Some of the common knee injuries that we see include ligament sprains involving the ACL, LCL, MCL, or PCL. In addition, we also see muscle strains that involve the muscles above and below the knee. We can come up with a thorough treatment plan to address these injuries.
• Back Injuries: Back injuries take two forms. First, we see a lot of back injuries that stem from overuse issues. This could relate to posture issues, moving the vertebrae out of place. Then, we see acute back injuries as well. This could include a herniated disc or a pinched nerve. We know how to treat these injuries.
• Elbow Injuries: Elbow injuries are relatively sport-specific. Some of the most common sports that lead to elbow injuries include baseball, tennis, and golf. These injuries could include generalized inflammation or a sprain of the UCL. We understand how to evaluate and treat these injuries.
• Foot Injuries: Finally, we also see foot injuries in our office as well. One common example is called plantar fasciitis, which involves inflammation of the lining on the bottom of the foot. In addition, we also see foot issues that include toe injuries and stress fractures. We know how to handle foot concerns.
