Sports Injuries

Keeping an active lifestyle with sports and exercise is an important aspect of long-term mental and physical health, however, sports can also result in many common injuries. Fortunately, many of them can be treated with appropriate medical and chiropractic care. At The Comprehensive Spine Center of Dallas, our sports injury doctors in Dallas can provide custom treatments for all of the following sports injuries and more:

• Sprains and Muscle Strains: Overexertion or sudden movements can cause sprained ligaments or strained muscles, which can cause pain and reduced performance.

• Contusions and Bruises: Contact sports often result in bruises or contusions due to impacts with other players or equipment.

• Fractures and Dislocations: More serious injuries, such as bone fractures or joint dislocations, require immediate medical attention.

• Tendon and Ligament Injuries: Athletes are susceptible to injuries such as torn ligaments (e.g., torn rotator cuffs), or tendonitis, which may require surgery and rehabilitation.

• Concussions: Head injuries can occur in sports like football or soccer, potentially leading to concussions and requiring a structured recovery plan.

• Overuse Injuries: Repetitive motions and training can lead to overuse injuries such as stress fractures or tennis elbow.

• Joint Injuries: Sprained ankles, dislocated shoulders, and other joint injuries are common in sports and may require rehabilitation.
