What Are Sports Injuries?
Sports injuries happen during games, gym workouts, running or any physical activity. They can be sudden, like a twisted knee or a shoulder dislocation, or develop slowly due to overuse and wrong technique.
Common sports injuries include ligament tears of the knee (ACL, PCL, MCL), meniscus tears, ankle sprains, shoulder dislocations, rotator cuff injuries, muscle pulls and tendon problems such as tennis elbow and Achilles pain.
Sports Injuries We Treat
Dr. Parth Patel treats athletes and active people with:
ACL and other knee ligament tears
Meniscus (knee cartilage) tears
Ankle sprains and ligament injuries
Shoulder dislocation and instability
Muscle pulls and tendon injuries
Tennis elbow and overuse pain
Non-Surgical Rehab
Rest, bracing, medicines and guided physiotherapy for sprains, strains and partial tears.
Arthroscopic Surgery
Keyhole surgery to repair or reconstruct torn ligaments and cartilage when needed.
Getting Back To Your Sport
The first step is an accurate diagnosis with examination and, when needed, MRI. Many injuries heal well with the right rest, support and exercises. Complete tears of important ligaments may need surgery to give the joint stability again.
Returning to sport too early can cause another injury. Dr. Parth Patel plans your rehabilitation step by step, from walking to running to full sport. Learn more about arthroscopy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Stop playing, rest the injured part, apply ice, use a compression bandage and keep the limb raised. Get it checked if pain or swelling is significant.
Not always. It depends on your age, activity level, other injuries in the knee and whether the knee feels unstable. This is decided after examination and MRI.
Minor sprains may need a few weeks, while ligament reconstruction usually needs several months of rehabilitation before returning to full sport.
Proper warm-up, good technique, strength and balance training, correct footwear and gradual increase in training help reduce the risk of injury.
