Tips to Help Prevent Sports Injuries Part 2

If you read our last blog about our tips to help prevent sports injuries, you'll know that we think sports are a fun way to be active and great way to stay fit. For adults and children alike, sports are generally good for us because they increase our confidence, teach us lessons in work ethic and teamwork, and improve our fitness level.  However, every sport does carry risks of injury.  The most common sports injuries are a result of overuse, especially in young athletes who are often pushed to play on multiple teams and play at a highly competitive level.  Injuries due to overuse include sprains (injuries to ligaments), strains (injuries to muscles), and stress fractures (injuries to bones).
