Sports Medicine and Recreational Activities
Sports medicine is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of injuries related to sports and physical activity. It combines medical knowledge with exercise science and aims to optimize athletes' performance while minimizing the risk of injuries. Sometimes it takes a coach or trainer to show you how to modify your form, and typically coaches and trainers look to the physical medicine doctors to rehabilitate their players.
