Sports injuries are often related to either acute injuries sustained during the athletic activity like fractures, strains, joint injuries, and dislocations or chronic injuries like tendonitis or tennis elbow due to the excessive wear and tear an athlete's body is subjected to. For example, runners, regardless if the patient is a weekend fun-runner or a competitive professional, are at risk of injury to their ankles, knees, hips, and back from the repetitive strain on their feet while running while soccer players, who can also develop chronic injuries, are more likely to sprain or fracture an ankle due to the quick changes of direction involved in their sport. The team at Bright Life Regenerative Medical Clinic in Schaumburg, and Lombard specializes in diagnosing and treating sports injuries such as runner's knee, tennis elbow, shoulder pain, back, and neck pain and sprains and strains with a combination of medical treatment, rehabilitation, and chiropractic care.
