Sports Injuries
What is sports trauma?
Sports trauma refers to traumatic injuries incurred while playing sports. These tend to involve less energy than motor vehicle accidents or other high speed trauma. Common traumatic injuries that Mr.Raj Kumar treats include fractures to all of the major bones, stress fractures, tendon ruptures, muscle strains, and back strains. The great thing about practicing in a multi-specialty orthopaedic practice is that if an injury is not within the scope of Mr.Raj Kumar’s practice, then he will find one of his partners who is an expert in the field.
Fractures
A bone fracture is a medical condition in which a bone is
cracked or broken. It is a break in the continuity of the bone.
While many fractures are the result of high force impact or
stress, bone fracture can also occur as a result of certain
medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis.
