Sports Injuries – Overview

Sports injuries are the injuries of soft tissues, these are responsible for connecting, supporting, and surrounding a variety of structures in the body – including the organs. Soft tissues include the muscles, tendons, and ligaments, etc. Tendons perform the task of connecting bone and muscle, ligaments are responsible for the joining of bones to bones, and muscle’s primary function is to create a movement – and hence force. Soft tissue recovery requires a prolonged time duration for complete healing.

A soft tissue injury is common in sports that are associated with overuse or improper use of the muscles and tendons. They mainly occur as a result of an uncontrolled movement, repetitive movement, or a sudden ankle rollover. They require approximately 1-8 weeks to be healed completely (depending on factors such as age and the condition), this can prevent routine physical activity. However if proper rest and precautions are not taken following a sports injury, it can develop into a chronic condition that can last for several months or years. If you suffer from a chronic condition then laser therapy has proven to be an effective chronic sports injury treatment.

Common sports injuries

Sports and soft tissue injuries damage muscles, tendons, and ligaments. A list of sports injuries are given below:

Muscle strain is the result of the overstretching of muscles. Improper use of the muscle or fatigue can also lead to muscle strain. They can happen anywhere in the muscular system, but the most susceptible areas for muscle strain are in the lower back and the muscles of the legs (hamstrings, quadriceps, and calves).

Achilles tendon strain is a common sports injury and is caused by repetitive strain or intense strain on the Achilles tendon. The Achilles tendon is a muscle that performs the function of joining calf muscles to the bone of the heel. The Achilles tendon is responsible for carrying out some very important functions such as walking, running and jumping, etc.

Ligament and tendon tears occur from the ripping or tearing of the fibrous type of connective tissues, both can occur from similar activities, an injury might occur due to overstretched or torn muscles. It most commonly occurs due to sports injuries in the knee (meniscus and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). They require several months to heal.

Hematoma is when a solid swollen blood clot forms within the tissue. They can become large enough to gather a significant amount of blood – resulting in low blood pressure. Organ dysfunction may occur if numerous large hematomas are left untreated.

    Sports injury rehabilitation and treatment options

    Once your injury has been spotted, your doctor will decide the possible line of treatment that might include medicines, therapy, and in extreme cases – surgery.

    You will be given pain medicines, NSAIDs, and muscle relaxants to help you cope with the pain and inflammation and prevent the sports injury from getting infections.

    You can also get treated by a physical therapist who will guide you about a set of exercises and will help you go through a sports injury rehabilitation course. This will help strengthen your muscles and help regain your range of motion.

    You also have to take a lot of rest to help the injury heal. Try home remedies that include using compressors, applying cold and hot packs, and having healthy meals.

    Laser therapy helps provide pain relief and accelerated healing rate for a list of sports injuries. Low Light Laser Therapy (LLLT) is effective in the treatment of sports injuries and is very effective for common sports injuries such as Jumper’s knee, tennis elbow, and Achilles tendinitis.

    Laser therapy has been shown to increase the cellular metabolism of the patient suffering from a sports injury which promotes the healing process of the targeted area. Laser therapy has also been shown to interact with the nerves of the targeted site in a way that reduces pain. This interaction also releases endorphins which reduces the painful sensations at the site. These interactions have a combined effect that results in pain relief starting from minutes after the first treatment to long-term pain relief.
