When you’re young and impressionable, your parents will usually pick a sport (of their choice), and you’ll either quit by the age of 14, or stick with it, and, possibly, become pro! Now the journey of a pro is not a common one, as we know there is a lot of competition these days, but do you know what is common? Sport injuries.
Unfortunately, sport injuries are a part of playing the game, and if you are heavily involved in a sport or multiple sports, you’re bound to experience a minor to severe injury. To get an idea of an injury you are likely to endure, here is a list of the top seven most common sport injuries:
- Ankle sprains;
- Groin pulls;
- Hamstring strains;
- Shin splints;
- Knee injuries; and
- Tennis elbows.
These are the most common injuries that you are likely to experience if you continue playing sports.
