Use the tips from Keck Medicine’s experts to avoid or minimize sports injuries:

Stretch and warm upInvest a few minutes to properly warm up. Walk or slowly jog for a few minutes, then focus on the muscles and joints you will be working. A sports medicine practitioner can help determine the best stretches for your activity.

Build strengthRegular strength training develops the muscles and tendons, which help stabilize your joints.

Wear protective gearBike helmets, knee pads, face masks — whatever your activity requires, wearing the right gear can protect you. Choosing shoes that fit properly can reduce foot and ankle injuries.
