Exercising is good for you, but sometimes you can injure yourself when you play sports or exercise. Accidents, poor training practices or improper equipment can cause them. Some people get hurt because they are not in shape. Not warming up or stretching enough can also lead to injuries.
The most common sports injuries.
- Sprains and strains- particularly twisted ankles!
- Knee injuries
- Muscle tears
- Achilles tendon injuries
- Shin splints
- Tennis & Golfers Elbow
- Frozen Shoulder and Rotator Cuff tears
What should I do if I injure myself?
If you get hurt, stop playing. Continuing to play or exercise can cause more harm. Treatment often begins with the RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) method to relieve pain, reduce swelling and speed healing. Other possible treatments include pain relievers, keeping the injured area from moving, rehabilitation and sometimes surgery. It is important that you seek advice regarding your injury, particularly if it persists. Long standing injuries can often become problematic. Even to the point of requiring painful and unnecessary surgery.

I’m a keen runner and having turned my ankle for the first time I was keen to visit a local physio/osteopath in Peterborough to have it checked out. So I booked myself into Total Health to see Ben. I was a little nervous and didn’t really know what to expect as up until now I’ve managed to avoid sports injuries. Ben soon put me at ease and before no time I felt relaxed and my ankle was in safe hands. Half an hour later I left with happy in the knowledge that I didn’t have a serious injury, i’d be able to compete and also I’d found a great clinic if I ever need to go back. Many thanks Ben and team.
Steve,
Many thanks for the positive comment!
Glad to hear that your ankle has recovered and I’m sure you’ll be competing in next years Tough Guy Challenge. Although, try sticking to running on flat surfaces to prevent twisted ankles in the future and remember to ‘break-in’ your trainers before race day next time.
