Our Bethesda and Kensington, MD therapists commonly treat the following sports injuries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The most common types of sports injuries are as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n
Knee injuries<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Your knee is the most complex joint in your body and one of the most commonly injured. Knee problems can range from minor aches and pains that run from your hip to your knee to more serious problems like an ACL rupture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Shin splints<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Shin splints are pain caused by tension on the shinbone and the underlying connective tissues. They are painful and often incapacitating, but they can be avoided by wearing appropriate footwear, warming up before exercise, and stretching.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Strain or pulled muscle<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

A strain, also known as a pulled muscle, occurs when the tendon that connects the muscle to the bone is stretched beyond its breaking point. The tendon is more likely to be strained again after being overstretched.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Sprain<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

A sprain occurs when a ligament that connects one bone to another is stretched too far. This can be a recurring issue.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
