Primary care sports medicine is the medical subspecialty that focuses exclusively on the diagnosis, management and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders. Sports medicine physicians are highly trained and capable of treating a wide variety of orthopedic conditions, whether they stem from an acute injury, chronic overuse, or normal wear and tear on the muscles and joints of the body. In addition to traditional modes of diagnosis and treatment, primary care sports medicine physicians are also on the leading edge of applying the fundamentals of regenerative medicine to orthopedics.
