What is Sport Injury?
A sport injury is physical damage that happens during exercise or sports activities. These injuries can affect different parts of the body including muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and bones.
Sport injuries typically fall into two main categories: acute and chronic. Acute injuries occur suddenly, like when you sprain an ankle during a game. Chronic injuries develop slowly over time from repeated movements.
Several factors cause sports injuries. Overuse is common – when we perform the same movements repeatedly without enough rest. This puts too much stress on our body parts.

Common Symptoms of Sport Injury
Athletes often experience several telltale signs when they’ve sustained a sports injury. Recognizing these symptoms early can help with proper treatment and faster recovery.
Pain
Usually the first and most obvious symptom. It may be sharp, dull, constant, or occur only during certain movements. Pain that persists or worsens during activity requires attention.
Swelling
It happens when fluid builds up in the injured area. It's the body's natural response to injury but can limit movement and increase discomfort.
Bruising or discoloration
Occurs when blood vessels break beneath the skin. The area may appear red, purple, or blue depending on the severity of the injury.
Reduced range of motion
Makes it difficult to move a joint through its normal movement pattern. This limitation often accompanies pain and swelling.
Weakness
Weakness in the affected area may make it hard to perform normal activities or athletic movements. You might notice decreased strength or stability.
Stiffness
Often develops hours or days after the initial injury. Morning stiffness or stiffness after periods of rest is particularly common.
Common symptoms by injury type:
Sprains
Swelling, bruising, instability
Strains
Pain during movement, muscle weakness
Fractures
Severe pain, visible deformity, inability to bear weight
Tendonitis
Pain with specific movements, localized tenderness
