Prevention of Sports Injuries

  • One of the easiest, yet most important prevention technique for sport injuries is to choose the correct shoes and insoles, and keep replacing them regularly as they get worn out.
  • Running on a softer surface like an indoor track rather than the road or pavement can also prevent a number of injuries.
  • To prevent shoulder injuries, it is most important to strengthen your muscles through weight training before getting involved in active sports.
  • Always stretch properly before and after exervise, and do not work out when you are weak or fatigued.
  • Never resume your sports activities until your injury is fully healed. Restarting activiity too soon can lead to chronic issues.
