Winter brings a new set of fun sports \u2013 which inevitably lead to a fair share of winter sport injuries. Here are a few common injuries to be aware of \u2013 and what you can do to protect yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-heading core-heading\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Winter Sports Injuries and Prevention<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>Most winter sports hinge on \u2013 you guessed it \u2013 winter weather. Nothing beats a great snowfall for the skiers, snowboarders, and sledders among us. However, the slick conditions necessary for that epic run down the mountain are also fair play for falls and collisions. The most common winter sports injuries are sprains, strains, dislocations, and fractures. Lacerations from sharp equipment and concussions from falls and crashes aren\u2019t far behind.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>While nothing you do can guarantee you\u2019ll avoid injury, there are some precautions you can take to set yourself up for victory this winter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>The majority of injuries occur at the end of the day, when you\u2019ve expended all your focus and energy before heading out for \u201cone more run.\u201d Know your body and pay attention to when it\u2019s signaling you to stop for the day. An injury that takes you out for the rest of the season isn\u2019t worth that last run when you\u2019re exhausted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>Another precaution to take is to play according to your skill level. Sure, challenge helps us grow, but taking on that black diamond when you\u2019ve just graduated from the bunny hill is a definite set-up for injury. If you\u2019re wanting to level up your skills, invest in a lesson or two to gain proper form and technique. Your body will thank you!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>When using equipment to enjoy the wintery outdoors, make sure that everything is in working order and fits properly. It may be tempting to make do with ski boots that are a bit too small or a snowboard that\u2019s \u201calmost the right size\u201d, but this increases your risk of injury. Make sure clasps and other mechanisms are operating smoothly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>Even though it\u2019s cold outside and you\u2019re not likely to be sweating buckets, staying hydrated is of utmost importance when participating in winter sports. Hydration keeps your brain functioning properly, as well as keeping many other organs and systems on track. Bring plenty of water with you and stop frequently to replenish your body as you play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress- core-\">\n\n<\/div><div class=\"container mx-auto   wordpress-block wordpress-paragraph core-paragraph\">\n<p>By paying attention to these basics, your risk of injury this winter will be reduced. Winter sports are a wonderful way to spend time outdoors, and a little planning will keep your body safe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skiing, snowboarding, running, sledding, oh my!
