Common Injuries whilst taking part in Judo
As a very physical combat sport, Judo is a sport in which it is fairly easy to sustain injuries. Therefore, it is essential that Judoka warm up properly before taking part in an Amateur Competition. One of the most essential parts of the warming up is stretching. Even though its a non violent and exceptionally fair sport kicking and hitting, for example, arent allowed Judokas could still be thrown on the floor or have their limbs or even heads locked in awkward, uncomfortable holds or grips. Anyone who takes part in Judo on a regular basis is quite likely to get injured sooner or later, but the injuries are usually minor. Serious injuries, however, may occasionally occur as well. Common injuries when taking part in Judo include the following:
- Fractures
- Contusions
- Hyperextension
- Dislocation
- Strains and sprains
- Lacerations
- Abrasions
- Cartilage tear
- Back injuries
