Do I need surgery for my sports injury?

Do I need surgery for my sports injury?

Not all sports injuries require surgery. Our team will first explore non-surgical treatment options, such as physical therapy, joint injections, and bracing. If surgery is necessary, we employ minimally invasive techniques and arthroscopic procedures whenever possible to minimize downtime and speed up your recovery.

How can I prevent sports injuries?

We prioritize injury prevention and education at Purple Heron Hospital. Our team can work with you to identify areas of weakness or imbalance that may increase your risk of injury and develop a personalized injury prevention plan. We also provide guidance on proper technique, equipment, and conditioning to minimize injury risk.

Can I still exercise and play sports while recovering from a sports injury?

This depends on the type and severity of your injury. In some cases, rest and limited activity may be necessary to allow your body to heal. However, in many cases, our team can develop a modified training program that allows you to continue exercising and participating in sports while minimizing the risk of further injury.

How long does it take to recover from a sports injury?

Recovery times vary depending on the severity and type of injury. Mild injuries may take a few weeks to heal, while more severe injuries may require several months of rehabilitation.
