Injuries & Sports Injuries

Injuries should be assessed by how they happened and how the body responds

A fall, twist, collision, sudden sprint, or repetitive load can affect bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles.

We examine the injury mechanism, tenderness, swelling, stability, and ability to move or bear weight.

01 · Symptoms

Injuries we evaluate

Common presentations include ankle and knee sprains, muscle strains, tendon injuries, contusions, overuse injuries, and possible fractures.

When imaging may be needed

X-ray may be considered when a fracture is possible.

  1. Gordonmadi clinic — sj2 0154

    Ultrasound can help assess selected tendons, ligaments, muscles, and fluid collections.

  2. Gordonmadi clinic — sj2 0180

    Some fractures are not obvious on an initial X-ray, so persistent focal pain may require reassessment.

    The assessment includes X-ray when it helps answer the clinical question.

02 · Care options

From protection to return to activity

Care may involve protection, bracing or immobilization, medication, progressive exercise, rehabilitation, or another treatment based on the diagnosis and recovery stage.

Pain that continues after an ankle or knee sprain

Swelling, stability, range of motion, and weight bearing are checked after the injury.

Elbow or shoulder pain after sports or strength training

The sport movement, training load, strength, and painful range help focus the examination.

Knee or heel pain after running and jumping

Jumping and running load are reviewed with tendon, joint, and movement findings.

Catching or clicking during joint movement

The location of the catching sensation and whether pain or swelling accompanies it are checked.

03 · Assessment

Care options follow the assessment

The physician uses Sprains to distinguish one symptom pattern from another.

  1. X-ray

    The review of Muscle strains adds context about movement, timing, and daily function.

  2. Musculoskeletal ultrasound

    The assessment uses Tendon injuries to stay focused on the main concern.

  3. Follow-up assessment

    The physician uses Possible fractures to distinguish one symptom pattern from another.
