Common injuries in professional sports include fractures, dislocations, sprains, strains, tendonitis, or bursitis. Injuries often affect the muscles in the legs, with hamstring strains, lateral ankle sprains, and groin pulls being particularly common.
Recovery time depends on the type and severity of the injury, your overall health, and how consistently you follow your treatment plan. Minor muscle strains or sprains may improve within a few weeks, while more complex injuries, such as ligament tears or post-surgical recovery, can take several months. Your consultant will assess your injury, set realistic recovery goals, and regularly review your progress to help you return to your normal activities or sport as safely and quickly as possible.
Absolutely. Sports medicine is not just for athletes. Our consultants treat anyone with musculoskeletal pain or injuries, whether they’re caused by exercise, work, daily activities, accidents, or even wear and tear. Our specialists can provide personalised treatment and rehabilitation to help reduce pain, restore movement, and prevent future injuries.
It's usually best to seek professional advice as soon as possible after an injury, particularly if you have significant pain, swelling, reduced movement, or difficulty bearing weight. Early assessment allows the correct diagnosis to be made and rehabilitation to begin at the appropriate stage, which can help speed up recovery and reduce the risk of long-term problems or re-injury. Even if your injury seems minor, early assessment and guidance can ensure you recover safely and effectively.
At Welbeck, we’re committed to ensuring the referral process is smooth and efficient. We welcome referrals from GPs and other healthcare professionals and aim to offer same-day or next-day appointments where possible.
