What do Sports Medicine Pediatricians do?
Sports Medicine Pediatricians diagnose, treat, and prevent sports-related injuries in children and teens, and manage related health conditions.
They treat common injuries like sprains, strains, and fractures, as well as more serious issues such as concussions and growth plate injuries.
These specialists are trained to understand that a child’s body is still developing, so they provide age-appropriate care that focuses on long-term health and performance.
Injury prevention and management
Injury prevention: Guide safe exercise, proper conditioning, and strength-building to help prevent injuries.
Injury treatment: Diagnose and treat acute injuries like sprains, strains, dislocations, and fractures. They also manage overuse injuries and other conditions affecting joints, tendons, muscles, and bones.
Rehabilitation: Develop personalized physical rehabilitation programs to help young athletes recover from injuries and return to their sport safely.
Special considerations for pediatric patients
Growth and development: They understand that children’s bodies are still developing and require a different approach to treatment than adults.
Growth plate injuries: They are specially trained to treat injuries that affect a child’s growth plates.
Concussions: They manage and treat concussions, which can have lasting effects if not correctly cared for.
Additional services
Related health conditions: They can also help manage other health conditions that may affect a child’s ability to participate in sports, such as asthma, diabetes, or eating disorders.
Nutrition and performance: They provide food and supplement counseling to optimize health and performance.
Event coverage: They may provide medical care at sporting events to treat on-site injuries.
