Sports Injury Treatment and Prevention - Homeopathic Treatment for Sports Injury

Sports Injury Treatment

DO NOT MASH.

M for massage. Massage is good for relaxation but not for injury treatment. Massage increases blood flow and can aggravate the inflammation and effects of injuries.

A for activity. Activity can increase the severity of injury and convert a mild one into a disabling one.

S for anesthetic sprays. Disasters have occurred after use of pain killing sprays after injuries. Pain is protective sensation which tells us to rest. If pain is abolished by the spray one tends to use the injured part and aggravate the injury. I have seen partial ligament tears being converted into total tears after using the spray and continuing the game.

H for heat. Heat is good for aches and pains not arising from injuries. Heat increases the inflammation after injuries and should not be used in the first 48 hours after injury.

Sports Injury Prevention

RICE stands for:

R for rest. Rest today to play another day. When in doubt rest.

I for ice. Apply ice and cool the injury to avoid swelling and inflammation.

C for compression. Tie an elastic crepe bandage to minimise the swelling and inflammation.

E for elevation. The injured part should be elevated so that gravity helps the veins to reduce the swelling.

State of art injury management techniques like ARTHROSCOPIC surgery or LASER in physiotherapy; have greatly reduced the recovery time after injuries in sports. Advanced Orthoses and protection devises like the tennis elbow brace or an arch-support- insole-footwear also go a long way to help the fitness enthusiast.

One must seek professional help and sort out the injury problems early before they cause irreversible damage.

Fitness Tip

Drinking water before and during exercise will help you to perform at your best and keep going longer. One of the most important roles of water is to get rid of the excess heat produced by your exercising muscles.
