Sports injuries commonly occur during sports or exercise. Some sports injuries result from accidents, others are due to poor training practices and improper equipment, lack of conditioning, or insufficient warm-up and stretching.

Common sports injuries include:

1) Muscle and tendon strains
2) Ligament Sprains
3) Joint Dislocations
4) Fractured Bones
5) Inflamed tendons and ligaments

A key part of rehabilitation from sports injuries is an exercise program designed to return the injured body part to a normal level of function. With most injuries, early mobilization (getting the part moving as soon as possible) will speed healing.

Early intervention of the patient is critical to a speedy recovery. Research has proven that people who seek physiotherapy early after an injury have shorter recovery periods than those who wait.
