Abstract
Whatever sport is considered the basic requirements of speed, strength, endurance and skill are common factors; each may be hampered by a prolonged absence from sport through injury. Recent advances in treatment are based on the following principles: injuries should be seen as soon as possible, diagnosis should be accurate, immobilisation should be for as short a time as possible, treatment should be intensive.Keywords
