Abstract
Adolescents are becoming involved in athletic activities at an ever-increasing rate, with the result that more adolescents are presenting to the family physician with athletic injuries. The most frequent type of sports injury involves the soft tissues. This paper discusses the diagnosis and management of soft-tissue injuries and identifies some of the behavioural characteristics of the injured adolescent athlete.Entities:
