This document discusses four common running injuries: 1) Comminuted fractures occur among overtrained runners without rest, 2) Tendinitis is inflammation of the tendon connecting bone to muscle, 3) Osteoarthritis is wear and tear of joints that causes deterioration, and 4) Bursitis protects high-use joints like the shoulder and knee by cushioning them from repetitive stress.

• COMMINUTED FRACTURE – It commonly occurs among runners who train to
without adequate rest periods. • TENDINITIS - It also called tendonitis is an inflammation or irritation of a tendon, a thick cord that attaches bone to muscle. • OSTEOARTHRITIS – It is the wear and tear of joint that result in deterioration. • BURSITIS – The bursa is a sac like musculosketal structure that provides support and cushioning to the joint. It protects commonly used joints such as the shoulder and the knee from repetitive mechanical stress.
