What Are Sports Injuries?
Sports injuries occur when physical activity leads to damage in muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, or joints. They can result from overuse, improper technique, or accidents during sports or exercise. Prompt evaluation and treatment are essential to prevent complications and ensure a full recovery.
