An acute sports injury is an injury that happens suddenly and can result in severe repercussions. Acute injuries are often a result of a traumatic event, such as when an athlete suddenly changes direction while running, collides with another player, or falls abruptly. When an acute injury occurs, they happen quickly and can result in the following:

  • Broken bones
  • Concussion
  • Dislocated shoulder
  • Fractures
  • Knee injuries, such as ACL or meniscus tears
  • Sprains and strains
  • Rotator cuff injuries

Additionally, if you are not in proper shape, aren’t warming up properly, aren’t using proper equipment, or do not receive proper training, then you also put yourself at risk of an acute injury. 

If you have suffered an acute injury, then it is important to seek help from an experienced sports injury specialist in Los Angeles.
