Sports Medicine

Sports medicine is a medical subspecialty focused on fitness, preventing, and treating sports and exercise-related injuries. It emerged as a distinct field in the late 20th century. Some countries recognize it as a medical specialty, while others consider it a special interest area. Sports medicine combines exercise promotion, health, scientific analysis, and performance assessment. Practitioners specialize in sports-related treatments, including prevention, rehabilitation, and injections. Common issues like back pain in athletes, caused by activities like cycling, weightlifting, and running, are often addressed by sports medicine physicians.
