Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as a sports injury?
A sports injury is any damage to the body sustained during physical activity or sport. This includes sprains, strains, tendon or ligament tears, stress fractures, overuse injuries, and biomechanical imbalances.
How soon should I seek professional help after an injury?
How do we diagnose your sports injury?
Here at Point Cook Physical, our main goal is to help all of our patients reduce their pain, stay active and live a comfortable life. We offer a range of services tailored specifically to sports injury treatment. From Physiotherapy to Remedial Sports Massage, our qualified and experienced experts will quickly identify the root cause of your problem and come up with a bespoke solution.
Your Physiotherapist will diagnose your sports injury based on how the injury has occurred, as well as your symptoms.
There are also a number of standardised tests which may help accurately identify the damaged or problematic structure.
Your physiotherapist may opt for further tests such as X-rays or MRI scans depending on the severity or longevity of the injury.
How long does recovery usually take?
Recovery depends heavily on the type and severity of the injury, your baseline fitness, age, and how consistently you follow the rehab plan. Some minor injuries may resolve in weeks; more complex ones can take months.
Can I prevent sports injuries from recurring?
Yes — our approach emphasises not just treating the injury, but preventing recurrence. We use strength & conditioning, movement retraining, load management, and gradual progression to make you more resilient.
What are the common causes of sports injuries?
The most common cause of sports injuries is poor movement. Most people don’t realise it but when one area of the body stops moving properly another area must take up the slack and that’s when the problems happen.
There are many other causes of sporting injuries:
- Structural abnormalities
- Physical trauma
- Muscle Weakness
- Tendon and/or ligament weakness
- Unsafe exercise environments
- Unsafe exercises
- Overuse
- Repetitive use
