Preventing Sports Injuries
Exercise is good for the body and with proper precautions, sports injuries may be
prevented. The quality of protective equipment - padding, helmets, shoes, mouth guards –
may contribute to safety in sports. But, you can still be susceptible to injury in certain
situations. Always contact your healthcare provider before starting any type of physical
activity, especially when performing vigorous types of exercises or sports.
