Sports Injuries
Sports injuries are common among athletes, and the most common types of sports injuries are concussions, fractures, sprains, strains, and contusions. Concussions occur after a mild head trauma or injury. Fractures occur when a bone is broken or cracked due to impact, such as a fall or a kick during a game. Sprains involve stretched muscles around joints that can cause mild to severe pain and swelling. Strains occur when a muscle or tendon is overstretched, and can cause severe pain.
If you are suffering from any of these types of sports injuries, it is important to seek medical attention right away. CleCare Urgent Care provide specialized treatment for fractures, sprains, and strains so that they heal properly. The urgent care staff will first assess your injury and determine the best course of action for treatment. They may recommend physical therapy, immobilization or casting, or other treatments to reduce pain and help the injury heal quickly.
