Abstract
The world of sports injuries includes traumatic injuries and overuse syndrome.Typical traumatic injuries are sprains (ligament injuries), including ankle sprains and anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) knee injuries. If primary treatment of sprains is not performed properly, secondary injury caused by jointinstability often occurs, which can lead to osteoarthritis.Examples of overuse syndrome include tennis elbow and jumper’s knee. Overuse syndrome involves the inflammation of the surrounding enthesis. Improper treatment of such cases can lead to chronic enthesopathy.What is important in treating sports injuries is not only evaluating and treating the condition itself but alsomaintaining the overall physical stature of the athlete. Such care must involve both the treatment of the conditionand the prevention of recurrence.The knowledge acquired in sports medicine, including treatment methods and strategies for improving physicalfunction, can be widely applied in general medical care. This is the significance of sports orthopedics.
