Q

Individuals who engage in various
types of physicalactivities such as
sports and exercise have ahigher
risk of getting injured as compared
to thosewho practice a sedentary
lifestyle. However, thepotential ben-
efits of an active lifestyle outweigh
therisks of suffering an injury.
Most of the injuries are preventable
andawareness of the risk factorswill
help in reducingthe risk.
Furthermore, vigilance and safety
measurescan dramatically reduce
the occurrenceof injuries

16
Q

TYPES OF CHRONIC INJURIES ACCORDING TO SEVERITY?

A

Stage 1-athletes complain of pain only after theacti-
vity, game or training session

Stage 2-athletes complain diring and after an acti-
vitybut do not feel it during rest

Stage 3 -Athletes feel pain whether at rest or play

17
Q

commonly occur among runners who train
forlong periods without enough rest per-
iods
According to study, running athletes whoave-
raged more than 65 km aweek have ahigher
risk to stress fracture
The repetitive workload creates micro trauma
– as thick as a strand ofhair – in the bone and
gets bigger over time
The usual area affected is the shinbone
does not require immobilization but theind-
ividual has to stop exercisefor around 4
weeks to give it time to heal
the most common overuse injury in sports
involves the muscle-tendon unit
usually due to muscle imbalance between
muscle pairs
most common site in tendinitis –upper limb
involves the muscle-tendon units around the
elbow
most common site in tendinitis –lower limb
extremities involves themuscle-tendon units
surrounding the knee
The pain usually eases during activity but will
worsen after playing
The individual should maintain fitness but
avoidactivities that utilize the injured
muscle-tendonunit
The recovery period usually takes 3weeks to
several months

A

STRESSS FRACTURE

18
Q

is the wear and tear of a joint that results
toits deterioration knee joint
The condition further aggravates when the
individual is overweight or obese
The recovery period takes several months
because of poor blood supply to the area
in several cases, doctors may recommend
surgery to replace the joint

A

OSTEOARTHRITIS

19
Q

musculoskeletal structure
that provides support and cushioning to
thejoint
it is common to swimmers and runners
The inflammation of the bursa interrupts the
surrounding structures,causing pain during
movement
The recovery period usually takes 2weeks to a
month

A

BURSITIS

20
Q

t goes beyond addressing the fitness
parameters such as aerobic capacity and
strength

A

ADOPT A COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING PROGRAM

21
Q

An individual should also learn the correct
technique to avoid injury.

A

USE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND PRACTICE CORRECT TECHNIQUE

22
Q

Recovery provides the body time to rebuild
broken musculoskeletal structures. Hence, an
individual should also eat properly to help
thebody restore lots of nutrients.

A

INCORPORATE RECOVERY STRATEGIES IN THE TRAINING PROGRAM

23
Q

These rules should be strictly enforced to
prevent excessive physical contact that
might lead to injuries.

A

FOLLOW RULES AND DECORUM DURING COMPETITION

24
Q

The immediate care given to a person/victim
whohas suddenly become illor injured.
