Common Sports Injuries in Children and Adolescents Medscape (Visit this link)

Medscape General Medicine 2(4), 2000 Posted 07/19/2000 Mark R Hutchinson, MD, and Rima Nasser, MD
This article reviews the injury risk and patterns of childhood athletic injuries, including types of injuries, anatomic location of injuries, variations of injuries between the sexes, and sports-specific injuries, compared with adult sports. It is hoped that increased knowledge and awareness will permit the growing population of adolescent and preadolescent athletes to participate successfully and safely in their chosen sport and that early and accurate diagnosis will speed their return to their sport after injury.
