Sports Injury Doctor Atlanta

Atlanta Ga's Preferred Team of Sports Injury Doctors and Chiropractors

As an avid sports fan and athlete himself, Dr Harry W. Brown has always taken a keen interest in alleviating chronic Sports Injuries that former athletes and current athletes are experiencing in Atlanta, Georgia. Our Sports Injury Doctor in Atlanta has been serving Georgia Athletes with the following Sports Injury conditions for 40 years:

    • SPRAINS AND STRAINS: The most common Sports Injuries include damage to specific muscles or groupings of tissues, tendons and ligaments. An acute twisting or overextension of a joint can lead to muscle or tendon tears called strains, and tears of ligaments called sprains. This type of sports injury is an patterned overuse injury resulting in erosion of cartilage in a particular joint area.

    • TENDINOSIS or TENDONITIS: Repetitive motions and stresses placed on a joint area can result in pain and dysfunction. These overuse syndromes cause the tendon to become inflamed from consistent overuse.

    • STRESS FRACTURES: Some athletes may experience stress fractures, which occurs when an abnormal amount of stress is placed on a bone. Stress fractures can occur from not building up your running time slowly, not warming up adequately and through a lack of proper strength training. Also, stress fractures are becoming more common for young athletes not eating the right foods, causing bone weakness and premature degeneration.

    • SHIN SPLINTS: This type of overuse injury results in micro-fractures of the shin bone on the front of the lower part of the leg. It is most often seen in runners although other athletes can be affected.

    • BACK and NECK INJURIES: During most contact sports, a tremendous amount of force is placed on the primary stabilizers of the Low Back and Neck area to help you body deal with the impact. These types of Sports Injuries usually show up later in life and lead to chronic muscle dysfunction and structural imbalances.
