Football injuries refer to physical injuries sustained by players while participating in the sport of football (soccer or American football). These injuries can range from mild to severe and can affect various parts of the body, including muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons, and bones. Common types of football injuries include sprains, strains, fractures, concussions, and overuse injuries. Factors contributing to these injuries may include the high-impact nature of the sport, rapid changes in direction, physical contact, and lack of proper conditioning.
