01Care for sports and activity injuries

Sports injuries can involve muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage or bone. The first step is a clinical examination, supported by X-ray, ultrasound or MRI when needed, to identify the exact structure injured and the severity of damage.

Many injuries improve without surgery when treatment is started early and followed consistently. The goal is to control pain, restore movement, rebuild strength and return to activity without repeated injury.

02Common non-surgical treatments

Depending on the diagnosis, conservative care may include:

  • Short-term rest from painful activity, followed by graded loading
  • Physiotherapy for flexibility, balance, strength and movement control
  • Bracing, taping or support when joint protection is needed
  • Medication or local treatment for pain and inflammation when appropriate
  • PRP injections for selected tendon, ligament and early joint conditions

03When PRP may help

PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is prepared from a small sample of the patient's own blood. It is sometimes used for selected soft-tissue injuries and early joint conditions as part of a broader rehabilitation plan.

PRP is not a universal treatment. Suitability depends on the diagnosis, duration of symptoms, imaging findings and previous response to physiotherapy or medication.

04When to see a specialist

Seek assessment if pain, swelling, instability, locking or reduced movement persists after an injury, or if symptoms return each time you resume sport. Urgent review is needed after a major fall, visible deformity, inability to bear weight or suspected fracture.

Surgery is considered only when the injury pattern, instability or failed conservative care makes it necessary.

05Frequently asked questions

No. Many sports injuries respond well to conservative care — rest, physiotherapy, bracing, activity modification and treatments such as PRP injections. Surgery is considered only when non-surgical measures do not restore function.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is prepared from a small sample of your own blood and injected into the injured area to support the body's natural healing. It is one of several non-surgical options used for suitable soft-tissue and joint injuries.

Seek advice if you have persistent pain, swelling, instability or reduced movement after an injury, or if symptoms do not settle with rest. Early assessment helps guide the safest and most effective recovery plan.
