Injuries!

Athletes experience injuries, regardless of the level of competition they're at! Bumps, bruises, sprains and strains happen to weekend warriors and to seasoned competitive athletes, alike. So what should you do in the event that you're sidelined with pain?

Rest! It's important to give injuries ample time to heal to prevent re-injury or even worse, complicating matters. If your injury is in an isolated area, it may be possible to work around it. But be careful, and consult a professional if you have questions. And also, in the event of severe or prolonged pain , consult a medical professional for assessment.
