Sports injury management is a specialized approach to the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of injuries sustained during athletic activity. It involves immediate care to manage pain and swelling, followed by a structured rehabilitation plan designed to restore strength, mobility, and function. Sports injury management aims for a safe and effective return to sport, reducing the risk of re-injury and optimizing performance.

Treatment may include a combination of modalities such as cryotherapy, electrical stimulation, therapeutic exercises, and manual therapy to reduce pain and promote healing. A tailored rehabilitation program is designed based on the specific needs of the athlete and the type of injury.

Effective sports injury management is critical to ensure that athletes recover fully and return to their sport with improved function, strength, and endurance.
