3. Kicking a Ball
Broken feet are one of the most common types of sports injuries, and it can happen in a variety of different sports that includes baseball, basketball, football – yes, both types – and many others. Contact sports can also sometimes increase the risk of developing a broken foot or severe fracture. This type of injury can happen when the foot sustains a massive impact – and pain, swelling and bruising will be the first symptoms.
An x-ray is imperative to the healing process in order to establish just how bad the injury is and how it should be set; after this, one can expect to be out of action for at least eight weeks until the fracture has healed over completely. Professional sportspeople might also want to follow up with their medical professionals about how to resume exercise and their career after healing from such a severe injury – sometimes it can mean the need for surgery.
