Abstract
- Correct and timely rehabilitation is a vital component of the treatment of sports injuries. The goals of rehabilitation include restoring function, restoring pain-free full range of motion, and achieving full muscle strength and sports endurance. Generally, sports rehabilitation entails a phased approach including progressive exercises and therapeutic modalities to achieve full recovery. This review discusses the rehabilitation of upper extremity, lower extremity, and back injuries. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
