About Sports Injuries

Welcome to the MGH Sports Medicine Service. Below we have provided some useful information about common sports injuries. The information is intended to inform you about the causes of the injuries, common symptoms, and the options available for treatment.

Of course, each patient's condition is unique, and the best course of treatment always begins with a thorough physician evaluation. If you would like to schedule an appointment with us, please call (617) 726-7500 or visit our Appointments page.
