Musculoskeletal injuries are no laughing matter. With studies coming out almost daily about the implications of injuries in athletes of all ages, from young children all the way through professional football players, a more comprehensive look at the role that these injuries play on our body is needed. For this week’s forum, you are to watch the following videos and select ONE to reflect on. I suggest you watch a few to get a good idea of what can happen. Please be aware that these videos are graphic.
