What is Sports Medicine?
Sports medicine refers to any medical care involved in the treatment and prevention of injuries and illnesses related to sports and exercise. This can include a large range of injuries from sprains, to muscle pulls and tears, to concussions. Sports medicine providers can also treat illnesses related to physical activity, such as asthma and diabetes.
Do I Need a Sports Medicine Provider?
