Work and Sports Injuries Questions & Answers

What causes work and sports injuries?

Work and sports injuries can occur at any stage of life and may result from sudden trauma or repeated stress on the body. These injuries can significantly impact daily activities, job performance, and athletic participation.

The most common causes of work and sports injuries include:

Direct trauma
Direct trauma occurs when the body experiences a sudden force, such as a fall, collision, or impact with an object. This may result in injuries such as fractures, concussions, or joint damage.

Overuse
Overuse injuries develop when a specific body part is used repeatedly without adequate rest. This repetitive stress can lead to inflammation, tendinitis, or muscle strain, commonly affecting the shoulders, knees, elbows, or lower back.

What are common sports injuries?

Sports injuries can occur even in individuals who are physically fit. Common sports-related injuries include:

Sprains and strains
Dislocations
Fractures
Knee injuries
Shoulder injuries

Prompt treatment is important to reduce downtime and support a safe return to athletic activity.
