This is a practical handbook on diagnosis and management of common
sports injuries. Written for GPs, physiotherapists and sports
therapists to tailor diagnosis and suggested therapy, as well as
for coaches and athletes, and for keen amateur sports people who
want to know what to do if they injure themselves. It is a clear
and easy to follow design with one injury explored per page. It
includes the most common lower and upper extremity injuries
occurring in team sports such as football/rugby/cricket, and some
non-team sports injuries (tennis, running, swimming, skiing). Many
people with a sports injury end up giving up exercising or cause
further damage because their injury isn't treated properly - either
treated as 'non-urgent' because it was caused by sporting activity,
or treatment is delayed because of long waiting times, or
GPs/physios are unsure of the diagnosis and treatment of sports
injuries. GPs usually immediately refer sports injuries to
consultants, with a long waiting list for consultation/scan. This
means patients suffer for longer, give up exercising and often
cause more damage by not following an exercise programme in the
meantime. This book will offer diagnosis and how to
treat/investigate and refer. Training advice during convalescence
will also be given.
