What is Sports Medicine?

Sports Medicine is a specialized field of healthcare that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of injuries and conditions related to physical activity and sports. It is not just for professional athletes but anyone who engages in physical activity, from children and teenagers to adults and seniors, can benefit from sports medicine care. This branch of medicine aims to enhance performance, prevent injuries, and promote overall wellness through a combination of medical expertise, rehabilitation, and tailored exercise programs.
