Dr Shawn P Harrington[/caption] Young athletes face a unique set of challenges and risks when it comes to sports injuries. Growth and immature skeletons can make younger athletes more vulnerable to a special set of injury types. Providing children and teens with the right orthopedic care and injury prevention strategies is crucial for their long-term health and development. This blog discusses the importance of orthopedic care for young athletes and how to keep them safe and healthy. Musculoskeletal injuries are the most common injuries in youth sports. Children of the same chronological age may vary considerably in biological maturity which can create unbalanced competition in team as well as one on one sports. Lower limbs are more frequently involved and injuries during practice are nearly 3x more common than during competition.
