1. A broken leg
A broken leg is extremely painful and can cause severe damage if not treated properly. Most people who have had a broken leg will know how excruciatingly painful it can be. If you break your leg while participating in a sport then you may need surgery. Doctors will use plates and screws to secure bones together and put a cast on the limb to keep them stable. You will probably have to stay at hospital for 4-8 weeks depending on how much bone was damaged.

2. Broken arm
Broken arms can be incredibly painful and can make movement difficult. Your doctor will check your arm and shoulder joint to ensure they are still working correctly. They will also take x-rays to determine whether any pieces of bone have been displaced and if any fractures have occurred. A plaster cast may be applied to the arm to immobilize it and allow time for healing. It’s very important to follow medical advice carefully after having a broken arm.

3. Sprained ankle
An injury to an ankle can be caused by twisting or turning the foot incorrectly, landing awkwardly, or getting caught in between something and the ground. You’ll feel pain near where you landed and swelling around the area. You’ll need to rest the injured area and apply ice packs to reduce inflammation and pain. You should avoid putting weight on the ankle until it heals completely.
4. Torn ACL
When an athlete tears their anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) they lose control over the knee joint. This causes the knee to bend backwards and forwards uncontrollably. The ACL connects the shinbone to the thigh bone and supports the knee joint. ACL injuries often occur when someone lands awkwardly on their knee while playing football, basketball, soccer, running, or doing other activities. Injuries to the ACL can happen suddenly or gradually over months or years. Surgery to repair torn ACLs is possible but surgeons prefer to wait 6-12 months before operating.

5. Fractured finger
Fractures to the fingers can be caused by accidents or sports injuries. If you injure your finger badly enough it could snap off entirely or break into several pieces. When this happens you’ll experience sharp pain and loss of function. You might be able to move the finger slightly or try to use it for tasks that don’t require full dexterity. The best treatment is to get immediate medical attention and seek out professional help.
6. Wrist fracture
Wrist fractures are common among athletes, especially those who play contact sports like football or hockey. In these cases the wrist will crack open from the top down and bone fragments will break off. These fractures are sometimes called Colles fractures. To treat a fractured wrist you’ll need to rest it and wear a splint to protect it from further injury. X-ray tests will show if any bones were displaced and doctors will give you medication to ease the pain.
7. Concussion
Concussions can occur from minor head trauma or when someone hits their heads violently on hard surfaces. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, confusion, memory loss, lack of coordination, and problems concentrating. Medical care is necessary to ensure the brain is functioning normally again. There is no cure for a concussion so it’s important to rest and recover from the injury.
