Sports injury refers to all varieties of injuries that are related to sports activities. These injuries include simple abrasion or joint sprain, muscle and tendon tear, ligament rupture and fracture, etc.
Depending on the site and mechanism of injury, sports injury may take weeks, up to months, of training before returning to pre-injury level sports. For instance, muscle tears can take 2-8 weeks to heal, whereas ligament injuries can take up to 1 year before returning to sports.
