Summary
Physical activity and sport carry a risk of injury, and this chapter explains the common injuries that occur during games and exercise, their causes, management and prevention. It classifies injuries into soft-tissue injuries (such as abrasions, contusions, sprains and strains), bone injuries (fractures and dislocations) and joint injuries. The chapter describes the causes of sports injuries, including inadequate warm-up, poor fitness, faulty technique, unsuitable equipment or surfaces, overuse and lack of concentration. It explains the immediate management of soft-tissue injuries through the RICE method — Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation — and the basic care of fractures, sprains and strains. The greatest emphasis is on prevention: a proper warm-up and cool-down, gradual training, correct technique, suitable equipment and protective gear, good fitness and following the rules of the game. By understanding injuries and their prevention, students can play safely and recover well if injured.
