Why Does Your Child Need Sports Physicals?

Every child who participates in any kind of sport or camping trip should get a physical wellness exam as it helps in:

  • Identifying pre-existing medical conditions or health issues that might pose a risk to your health during sports activity.
  • Assessing the overall fitness level and stamina by checking cardiovascular health, muscle strength and flexibility.
  • Preventing the likelihood of injuries as the provider identifies the risk of sport-related injuries and counsels on how you can prevent them. 
  • Some schools and sports organizations often require sports physicals to confirm that the person has a medical clearance to participate in different sports.

Sports physical exam is mostly done to protect your health and well-being and also to reduce the risk of injuries or medical emergencies.

What Happens During A Sports Physical?

During the sports and camp physical, the health provider will inquire about your child’s medical history and general health, including previous hospitalizations, injuries, or illnesses that might affect their participation in sports or other activities.

The child will undergo an examination of the following:

  1. Medical history review: the provider will ask about the medical history of the child and family, allergies, past injuries, previous hospitalizations or if your child is taking any prescription or non-prescription medicines. 
  2. General physical exam: This includes a comprehensive evaluation of your child’s height, weight, blood pressure, pulse rate, checking your heart, lungs and examining joints and muscles. 
  3. Evaluating muscle function: The provider will examine the joints, muscles, and flexibility to identify any issues that may affect your child’s performance in sports or increase the risk of injury.
  4. Discussion of sports participation: After assessing your general health parameters, the provider reviews your sports participation history and addresses all your concerns regarding the chosen sport. 
  5. Clearance for participation: At the end, the provider allows you to participate in sports activities based on your physical exam findings. However, if further evaluation is required, you will be referred to a specialist.

They were outstanding. Check in was easy and quick despite being a new patient, and the care was superb. Found them in an emergency situation and they were above and beyond any provider I have found in an immediate care situation. Not too long of a wait despite being a walk in, patient & kind staff, good communication, excellent medical skills, thorough care. I will never go anywhere else for urgent care again.

I can hear with rib pain and was taken care of quickly. The guys in the front were quick and helped set up really fast. Dr. Lena Farah was great in explaining everything the pain could be from as well as what it could NOT be from which really helped assure me. She was super comprehensive as to what every symptom I could have was from. She was very educated and very nice when discussing what I came there for.
