Abstract

The extent and frequency of sports injury is often influenced by a variety of exogenous and endogenous factors, including poor physical fitness muscular imbalance, anatomical abnormalities, poor nutrition, and periods of intensive growth. The competing ability must be carefully estimated after injury, taking into account the nature and type of injury, the pain sensitivity as well as the time that passed from the injury. This is usually accomplished by the comparison with the uninjured limb, as well as with functional examinations. We evaluated the frequency and the type of injury in 112 sportsmen in Kosovska Mitrovica. Our results indicate that accurate evaluation of competing ability after injury is an important preventive measure in further sports activities.
