What Causes Sports Injuries?

Sports injuries can occur due to several factors, each depending on the type of sport and competition level. Some of the most frequent sports injuries are from overusing your muscles and joints. Repetitive motions can strain your muscles, tendons, and ligaments and lead to inflammation and pain. Sudden impacts, falls, or collisions in contact sports are also frequent causes of injuries. These often lead to concussions, fractures, sprains, or dislocations. Improper technique and poor conditioning can increase your risk of injuries involving the spine, joints and tissues.
