What
is Athletic Training?
&=
nbsp;
Athlet=
ic
training is practiced by athletic trainers, health care professionals who
collaborate with physicians to optimize activity and participation of patie=
nts
and clients. Athletic Training encompasses the prevention, diagnosis, and
intervention of emergency, acute, and chronic medical conditions involving
impairment, functional limitations, and disabilities.

You Do If You Get Injured?
** Neve=

an acute (new) injury **
![](3D"Trainer_files/image009.gif")
&=
nbsp;
USE the
R.I.C.E Method
REST: Is vi=
tal to
protect the injured muscle, tendon, ligament or other tissue from further
injury. Secondly, your body needs to rest so it has the energy it needs to =
heal
itself most effectively.
ICE: Use i=
ce
bags or cold packs to provide cold to the injured area. Cold can provide
short-term pain relief. It also limits swelling by reducing blood flow to t=
he
injured area. Keep in mind, though, that you should never leave ice =
on
an injury for more than 15-20 minutes at a time. Longer exposure can damage
your skin. The best rule is to apply cold compresses for 15 minutes and then
leave them off for at least 20 minutes.
COMPRESSION: Compr=
ession
limits swelling, which slows down healing. Some people notice pain relief f=
rom
compression as well. An easy way to compress the area of the injury is to w=
rap
an ACE bandage over it. If you feel throbbing, or if the wrap just feels too
tight, remove the bandage and re-wrap the area
ELEVATION: Eleva=
ting
an injury reduces swelling. It's most effective when the injured area is ra=
ised
above the level of the heart

WHAT
IS A CONCUSSION?
A concussion is a brain injury.
Concussions are caused by a bump or blow to the head. Even a
“ding”, “getting your bell rung”, or what seems to =
be a
mild bump or blow to the head can be serious.
You can’t see a concussion.
Signs and symptoms of concussion can show up right after the injury or may =
not
appear or be noticed until days or weeks after the injury. If your child
reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms yourself,
seek medical attention right away.
WHAT ARE THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF A CONCUSSION?
If your child has experienced a blow to the head during a
game or practice,
look for any of the following signs and symptoms of a
concussion:

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOU THINK YOUR CHILD HAS A CONCUSSI=
ON?
1. <=
/span> Seek medical attention right away. A health care
professional will be able to decide how serious the concussion is and when =
it
is safe for your child to return to sports.
2. <=
/span>Keep your child out of play. Concussions take time to hea=
l.
Don’t let your child return to play until a health care professional =
says
it’s OK. Children who return to play too soon, while the brain is sti=
ll
healing, risk a greater chance of having a second concussion. Second or lat=
er
concussions can be very serious. They can cause permanent brain damage,
affecting your child for a lifetime.
3. <=
/span>Tell your child’s coach about any recent concussion.
Coaches should know if your child had a recent concussion in ANY sport. Your
child’s coach may not know about a concussion your child received in
another sport or activity unless you tell the coach.
It’s better to miss one game than the whole season.=
