I believe the majority of a number of ball age of golfers tried playing injured. Commonly injured parts of the wrists, shoulders, knees, waist, and so on. And some more serious injured. I remember a friend of twenty years veteran in the driving range, three months ago, in a stroke to play thick and seriously injured his left shoulder tendon with. He was in pain I do not know how to deal with, they immediately call me "help".

In addition to this "help" telephone had also received many similar phones and consultation. I found that this is a very common phenomenon, many golfers do not know what to do after an injury. I am most frequently asked questions than in the injured joint or muscle strain should be frozen deposited or hot compress? They often can not figure out. If you this answer is not quite sure if you should continue to read on ......

For most of the weekend golfers, the most common sports injuries are usually sprains, namely injure the phloem connection between bones, and strain, that is hurt with tendons connect with bone. Sprains and strains are often caused by severe injuries such as sprained ankles, or because of a long time repeat the same action, such as "tennis player"

To remember this word: R I C E,

Unfortunately, sprain or strain in the play; addition to remain calm in the circumstances permit, you can make some simple and effective self-treatment (of course, such as the injury is too serious they should immediately seek medical treatment). This will not only greatly reduce the immediate pain, better able to stabilize the injury and accelerate recovery speed.

R: Rest rest

Avoid using the injured area, eliminating the opportunity to aggravated injury.

I: Ice cold deposited

Ice placed in bags deposited in the wound. This approach can effectively reduce the wound swelling degree of intelligence. Within 48 hours after the injury more than cold enough, to get the best treatment.

C: Compression pressure

Ice pack bandaged the wound. Do not bandage too tight interfere with blood circulation. After 10-15 minutes, loosen the bandage and remove the ice pack. Six hours after an hour and then apply ice for 15-20 minutes in the wound. When the wound is also showing a swelling on a daily basis can continue 3-4 times freeze apply.

E: Elevation elevation

Wound elevation can reduce blood flow to the wound in the heart of.

Is better than cure

Is generally believed that enough warm-up to be effective in reducing injuries before playing. But one by Deakin University, Australia in 2001 made out of research that, 45.7% do not warm up exercises, to reach the first tee will be the first time forced to serve in their study of 1,040 golfers. This means that 54.3% of the players warm up exercises, but most of the warm-up is just an empty command to defend the two or three times; players aerobic exercise, while only a small number of stretching movements. The results showed that only about 3% of players do adequate warm-up.

Adequate warm-up exercises before playing should include 10-15 minutes of aerobic exercise to increase body temperature, stretching movements (such as the bowl of hand, forearm, shoulder, waist, etc.), followed by a series from slow to fast play to defend the action. This is an ideal golf warm-up, not only can improve the playing standards, but also able to reduce injuries, kill two birds with one stone.
