Injuries, Strains, & Sprains

Our healthcare providers work closely with trainers, physical therapists, orthopedic and podiatric surgeons, nutritionists, and other medical specialists to help you reach and maintain you activity goals.

Referrals can be made as needed.

 

Evaluation

We offer evaluations for injuries including strains and sprains, injury care including simple laceration repair, as well as consultation/evaluation for safely returning to activity after an injury or illness.

Diagnosis

In the event of an acute injury (a sprained ankle, for example), a student may be given an appointment with a primary care provider. Any of our healthcare providers can make an initial evaluation and order diagnostic testing if indicated.

Treatment

If deemed necessary, a follow-up visit can be arranged for a sports medicine evaluation. If a student is experiencing a chronic issue (knee pain with running for example), they can schedule a Sports Medicine evaluation in advance.
