Dr. Randell DuPraw, Maple Healthcare Chiropractic Therapy Center, said that each treatment for many American athletes and athletes, Vietnam suffered from sports injuries.

Drama in the game is pushed high when players compete to rob the ball, or in any way to prevent the opponent from putting the ball into the home net. So collision in the match is unavoidable.

When two solid bodies of players collide with each other, there will be a huge impact on the opponent, the most severe is a direct impact on the spine and head. A vertebra may crack if the force acts on the right acupuncture point, causing the victim to be paralyzed or killed by inhibiting the vertebral area that directly affects the respiratory or heart.

Research in the United States shows that injuries occur frequently in strong antagonistic sports such as football and rugby football. Experts define this type of injury as 'contact sport'. That is, when playing subjects that are antagonistic, the players will be exposed to the force of impact throughout the match. Fractures, cuts and bruises are inevitable injuries.

Some sports injuries can lead to death if not controlled and properly predict the severity of the injury. Victims may die due to the complex nature of blood clotting. In some cases, the player has a congenital or genetic defect that the doctor does not detect, so the symptoms cannot be controlled during the treatment of sports injuries.

According to a medical survey of sports injuries, the most common injuries for athletes are tendon and ligament damage. These injuries are even more difficult to treat than fractures, due to poor body healing mechanisms in these organs. Besides various problems from ankles, muscle tension, herniated discs, broken veins, shoulder pain, elbow for tennis players, back pain with golfers.

If not treated promptly and properly when traumatic, the recovery process can last up to several months. Trauma can recur many times and become a serious problem. Sports injuries hamper mobility, sometimes forcing them to stop playing their favorite sport.

To limit injuries during sports, Randoll advised athletes to pay attention to safety rules. For example, start up properly and properly before playing, fully equipped with the necessary protective gear for your sport such as shoes, hats, gloves, protective shirts, knees, etc. Do not play too much , especially those who have been traumatized should keep the intensity of the exercise in accordance with the advice of a specialist or coach.

Therefore, it is required that players always have the sense of 'fair play' play , not going into the rough ball to cause injury to themselves and others. Always play with the spirit of devotion but still ensure the health.
