The role of eccentric exercise in sport injuries rehabilitation
Introduction Sports injuries frequently involve tendons, muscles and ligaments. The variable outcome of surgery and medical treatment support early functional treatments. Eccentric exercise (EE) showed effectiveness in the management of Achilles tendinopathy (AT), patellar tendinopathy (PT) and lateral epicondyle tendinopathy (LET). Preliminary results of EE in other tendinopathies and sports injuries suggest its wide prescription in the sport rehabilitation field. Sources of data A comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Collaboration Database, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Evidence Based ...

The Elephant in the Room: Too Much Medicine in Musculoskeletal Practice.
Abstract While advances in assessment and management of musculoskeletal conditions have improved care for many people, there have been other, less beneficial developments in the provision of care for people with musculoskeletal pain conditions, one of which is the worrying tendency to provide too much medicine. Too much medicine occurs when the provision of either investigation or intervention (or both) is unjustifiably excessive. Another concern in musculoskeletal health care is medicalizing normality-when a normal human function or condition is labeled as abnormal. In this Viewpoint, the authors argue that medic...

Sports and martial arts activities for public health purposes: the musician ’s risk profiles and exercise-based health care as a model
ConclusionSports organisations provide a wide spectrum of facilities for sports-oriented lifestyles; however, informal experience and relevant publications let us assume that they rather do not explore how to optimise preventative and health-related benefits, except for training with personal coaches. And yet, relatively simple screening methods and individually adjusted intensities, modes, and frequencies of trainings can enhance benefits and greatly contribute to public health, which would, however, require a stronger health awareness of providers and specific education of sports coaches.

A Case Series and Literature Review: Isolated Traumatic First Rib Fracture in Athletes
Conclusions: Traumatic fracture of the first rib in sport is certainly not a common diagnosis, but it is likely more widespread than sports medicine providers realize. Considering the diagnosis of first rib fracture for athletes with shoulder pain after trauma is essential for identifying this injury. Although more study is likely needed to make definitive recommendations on treatment and return to play protocols, the case series and literature review presented suggests that rehabilitation and return to play when the patient is asymptomatic may be appropriate care.

Does Acupressure Hit the Mark? A Three-Arm Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial of Acupressure for Pain and Anxiety Relief in Athletes With Acute Musculoskeletal Sports Injuries
Objectives: Injuries are a common consequence of sports and recreational activity. The optimal management of symptoms is a crucial element of sports injury management. Acupressure has previously been shown to effectively decrease symptoms of musculoskeletal injury, thus may be considered a potentially useful intervention in the management of sport-related injuries. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of acupressure in decreasing pain and anxiety in acutely injured athletes. Design: A prospective 3-arm randomized placebo-controlled trial. Setting: A sports injury clinic, Dunedin, New Zealand. ...

Patellofemoral Pain: Using the Evidence to Guide Physical Therapist Practice.
Authors: Abstract Kneecap pain, also known as anterior knee pain or patellofemoral pain, is the most common injury seen in sports medicine clinics. The goal of the clinical practice guidelines on patellofemoral pain, published in the September 2019 issue of the JOSPT, was to make recommendations based on best scientific evidence that help clinicians and patients make decisions about managing this pain. Clinicians can use these guidelines to combine the latest scientific evidence with their clinical expertise and the preferences of the patient to develop a tailored management plan.

Sports hip injuries: assessment and management.
Authors: Kelly BT, Maak TG, Larson CM, Bedi A, Zaltz I Abstract Over the past 10 years, the understanding, assessment, and management of hip pain and injuries in the athlete have improved. Traditionally, the evaluation of hip pain and injuries was limited to obvious disorders, such as hip arthritis and fractures, or disorders that were previously considered to be simply soft-tissue strains and contusions, such as groin pulls, hip pointers, and bursitis. Two parallel tracks of progress have improved understanding of the complexities of hip joint athletic injuries and the biomechanical basis of early hip disease. In ...

Determinants of Return to Play After the Nonoperative Management of Hamstring Injuries in Athletes: A Systematic Review
Conclusion: Numerous determinants have an effect on return to play after a hamstring injury in athletes. It is important for sports professionals to be aware of those determinants to guide athletes through the rehabilitation process and refine return-to-play strategies.

What characterises champion runners' management of injury and illness? qualitative study at iaaf athletics world championships
Conclusions A model of injury and illness management among champion runners has been developed. The model offers a positive outlook on progress in sports where overuse injuries are common, and a direction for policies aimed at protection of top-level athletes. Resilience behaviour arises from dynamic adaptations of normal functions, meaning that the greatest threats to health maintenance in this group of athletes are those that compromise such adaptations.

Rehabilitation Management of Rotator Cuff Injuries in the Master Athlete
Rotator cuff (RTC) injuries are common in master athletes, especially overhead athletes. Risk factors include aging and degeneration as nonmodifiable and volume of activity, muscle weakness, and loss of motion as modifiable. The clinical presentation involves limited range of motion (ROM), pain at rest and at night. Injury classification into traumatic versus nontraumatic and tendinopathy, partial or full-thickness tears helps to establish a treatment plan. RTC injury rehabilitation protocols are criteria-based, multimodal, and divided into four phases. The acute phase addresses pain, inflammation, ROM, and RTC protection....

Ulnar-Sided Wrist Pain in the Athlete: Sport-Specific Demands, Clinical Presentation, and Management Options
Curr Sports Med Rep. 2021 Jun 1;20(6):312-318. doi: 10.1249/JSR.0000000000000853.ABSTRACTUlnar-sided wrist injuries are common in sports that require repeated pronosupination, wrist radial/ulnar deviation, axial loading, and gripping equipment. Common anatomic structures affected include the triangular fibrocartilage complex, extensor carpi ulnaris tendon, distal radioulnar and ulnocarpal joints, and hamate bone. Presenting symptoms include pain with activity, swelling, possible snapping or clicking, and reproduction of symptoms with provocative maneuvers. Imaging may confirm or rule out pathologies, but abnormal findings ...
