Sports Injury Treatment
Sports injuries can happen whether you’re exercising or enjoying an indoor or outdoor sport. They may be brought on by mishaps, poor training, ineffective use of safety equipment, or a lack of stretching or warm-up activities. Fractures, dislocations, sprains, and strains are the most common sports injuries. Dr. Mahantesh Magadum is one of the best orthopedic specialists for sports injury treatment in Dubai.
Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) are the most frequent injury treatment recommendations
- Rest: Take a break from potentially harmful activities.
- Ice: You can apply ice packs to the wounded region to help reduce pain and reduce swelling. For a few days, the affected area has to have ice put to it over a towel for 15-20 minutes each time. The skin should never be exposed to ice.
- Compression: Compressing the wounded area also helps reduce swelling. This is possible with elastic wraps, air casts, and splints.
- Elevation: This can help to reduce discomfort and swelling by raising the afflicted area above the level of your heart.
