Stop exercising if you feel pain, regardless of whether your sports injury happened suddenly or you’ve had the pain for a while.
If a particular movement or activity hurts, stop doing it and get medical help. Continuing to exercise while you're injured may cause further damage and slow your recovery time.
If you get a severe injury while doing a sporting activity, such as a deep cut or concussion from a blow to the head, go to your nearest hospital emergency room.
Contact IIHC so we can refer you at no charge to a top notch medical clinic. The physicians on staff will be there to help you get back in action as quickly as possible.
It is important that you identify and treat athletic injuries at the onset. With proper intervention, you can control and reduce pain, swelling, and loss of motion and loss of function to the injured area.
