What are the causes of sports injuries?

Now more and more people have realized the importance of exercise to the body, so many people have joined the ranks of exercise. However, there will always be problems of one kind or another during the exercise process. Among them, sports injuries are a common phenomenon. So what are the causes of sports injuries? Let’s learn about it together, it will be of great help to your exercise.

1. Ideological factors

1. Not paying attention to the prevention of sports injuries, not paying attention to safety during training, not analyzing the causes of injuries, and not summarizing experiences and learning lessons. 2. Exercise blindly and rashly, eager for quick results, and ignore the principles of gradual progress and doing things within one's ability. 3. Lack of strong willpower. 2. Preparation Activities

1. Not doing warm-up exercises: Due to functional inertia, the functions of various parts are not improved accordingly, which can easily lead to muscle strain and joint sprain. 2. Insufficient warm-up: The functions of the nervous system and other organ systems are not fully prepared before engaging in intense formal exercise, or the warm-up is sloppy. 3. The content of the warm-up activities is not well integrated with the basic content of the sport, or there is a lack of special warm-up activities. 4. Excessive warm-up exercises lead to decreased functions and fatigue. 5. The interval between warm-up and formal exercise is too long, which defeats the purpose of warm-up.

3. Technical shortcomings and errors

Violating the characteristics of the human body's structure and functions and the principles of mechanics can easily lead to injury.

1. If your hand shape is incorrect when passing the ball, your fingers may be easily bruised. 2. When throwing a javelin or a grenade, the elbow should be lower than the shoulder. 3. Race walking without hip thrust can easily cause excessive burden on the tibialis anterior muscle

4. Unreasonable exercise arrangement

(1) The local burden is too large and exceeds the physiological burden.

1. Too much jumping and barbell squatting will put too much pressure on the knees and make you prone to patellar strain. 2. Excessive jumping and running can cause tibial and fibular fatigue periostitis. 3. Excessive supporting movements in children can easily cause distal radial epiphysisitis and humeral capitellum epiphysisitis.

2. Poor human body function.

When the body is tired, functional capacity is reduced, an injury has just been recovered, muscle strength is weakened, and reaction is slow, it is inevitable to get hurt when carrying out normal training.

V. Shortcomings in the Organization of Teaching, Training and Competitions

Failure to comply with training principles, lack of medical supervision, failure to adhere to the principle of gradual progress and individual treatment, failure to proceed from reality, lack of guidance and protection for equipment exercises, small training grounds with many people and no area divisions.

6. Other reasons

1. Defects in venues and equipment; 2. Failure to comply with competition rules and violation of sports ethics; 3. Poor climatic conditions, high fever, heatstroke, cold and frostbite, poor lighting, unclear vision, easy to fall or bump into things, etc.

7. Causes

1. Characteristics of each sport:

1. Too many half-squat movements can cause patellar injury. 2. Too many supporting items can cause shoulder, elbow, and wrist injuries. 3. During long-distance running, the iliotibial band slides back and forth, rubbing against the lateral femoral condyle, which can cause lateral knee pain syndrome.

(II) Human anatomical characteristics and weaknesses:

1. The supraspinatus muscle is squeezed by the greater tubercle and the acromion; this may cause rotator cuff injury. 2. The joint is in a certain flexion position, and the stability is reduced.

In short, when sports injuries occur, it has a lot to do with thinking, rash practice without sufficient warm-up, lack of methods in sports techniques, unreasonable exercise arrangement, and other reasons. When sports injuries occur, they must be treated in time according to the condition of the injured. If the injury is serious, it is very correct to send to the hospital in time.
