INJURY
 WHAT IS
CHRONIC OR
OVERUSED
INJURY?
CHRONIC INJURIES
CHRONIC
INJURIES
develop from long-term repetitive
motion in sports like long-distance
running, cycling and swimming.
Sometimes called overuse injuries, they
result from wear and tear over time, and
can be made worse through bad
technique.

STRESS

CHRONIC INJURIES
FRACTURE
Stress fractures are tiny
cracks in a bone.
They're caused by
repetitive force, often
from overuse — such as
repeatedly jumping up
and down or running
long distances.

CHRONIC INJURIES
FRACTURE
This type of fracture
does not require
immobilization, but
the individual has to
stop exercise for
around four weeks to
give it time to heal.
 CHRONIC INJURIES

TENDINOPATHY/
TENDINITIS
Tendinopathy is usually a type of
overuse injury, where the tendon is
repeatedly strained until tiny tears
form. It commonly affects the
shoulder, wrist, knee, shin and heel. 
OSTEOARTHRITIS is the most common form
of arthritis. It is a chronic
degenerative joint disease
that affects mostly
middle-aged and older
adults.
Osteoarthritis causes the
breakdown of joint
cartilage. It can occur in
any joint, but it most often
affects the hands, knees,
hips, or spine
CHRONIC INJURIES
BURSITIS

CHRONIC INJURIES
Bursitis is the inflammation
of the bursae. Most common
locations for bursitis are the
shoulder, elbow and hip, but
can occur in other locations
like the knee, heel and base
of the big toe. Bursitis is
typically caused by repetitive,
minor impact on the area, or
from a sudden, more serious
injury.
