A member asked:
After getting a sports injury, what steps should you take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends...: If you have sustained a sports injury it is best to be seen by a sports physician for evaluation and guidance on how to safely return to your desired level of activity. Depending on the injury you may be told to take a period of time off from your sport, be given exercises to do at home or to participate in a structured physical therapy program.
