TENNIS ELBOW (EPICONDYLITIS)
What it is: Repetitive use of the elbow — for example,
during golf or tennis swings — can irritate or make tiny
tears in the elbow's tendons. Epicondylitis is most
common in 30- to 60-year-olds and usually involves the
outside of the elbow.
What you can do: Epicondylitis can usually be cleared
up by staying off the tennis court or golf course until the
pain improves. Using the PRICE therapy can help.
When to see a doctor: if you have any significant
swelling or bruising, you should check in with a doct#TennisElbowe#injurynjury
KNEE INJURY: PATELLOFEMORAL SYNDROME
What it is: Patellofemoral syndrome can result from
the repetitive movement of your kneecap (patella)
against your thigh bone (femur), which can damage the
tissue under the kneecap. Running, volleyball, and
basketball commonly set it off. One knee or both can be
affected. #patellofemoral #Knee
What you can do: Patience is key. Patellofemoral pain
can take up to six weeks to clear up. It's important to
continue low-impact exercise during this time. Working
out the quadriceps can also relieve pain.
When to see a doctor: if you have any significant
swelling or bruising, you should check in with a doctor.
KNEE INJURY: ACL TEAR
What it is: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) holds
the leg bone to the knee. Sudden “cuts” or stops or
getting hit from the side can strain or tear the ACL. A
complete tear can make the dreaded “pop” sound.
When to see a doctor: Always, if you suspect an ACL
injury. ACL tears are potentially the most severe of the
common sports injuries. A completely torn ACL will
usually require surgery in individuals who wish to
remain physically active.

SHIN SPLINTS
What they are: Pains down the front of the lower legs
are commonly called “shin splints. They are most often
brought on by running — especially when starting a
more strenuous training program like long runs on
paved roads.
What you can do: Rest, ice, and over-the-counter pain
medicine are the mainstays of treatment.
When to see a doctor: The pain of shin splints is
rarely an actual stress fracture — a small break in the
shin bone. But you should see your doctor if the pain
persists, even with rest. Stress fractures require
prolonged rest, commonly a month or more to heal.
HAMSTRING STRAIN
What it is: Three muscles in the back of the thigh form
the hamstring. The hamstring can be over-stretched by
movements such as hurdling — kicking the leg out
sharply when running. Sprinting and falling forward
while water skiing is another common cause of
hamstring strain.
What you can do: Hamstring injuries are slow to heal
because of the constant stress applied to the injured
tissue from walking. Complete healing can take six to 12
months. Re-injuries are common because it's hard for
many guys to stay inactive for that long.

swelling or bruising, you should check in with a docto#hamstringsr#sportsports
