Explain what distinguishes acute and chronic sports injuries.
Acute sports injuries are generally those that result from some sort of traumatic event on the body. Since they generally result from trauma, acute injuries tend to have a rapid onset and progression, but this can also mean that they will be of more limited duration. Chronic sports injuries, however, are generally those that develop over extended periods of time from overuse and improper exercise techniques. The slow onset and progression of chronic injuries tends to also extend the time needed to recover from them.
Explain why the first step in responding to any sports injury is to remove the danger that lead to the injury.
When someone sustains an injury while participating in sports, that indicates that something unexpected has occurred. There is a risk that the conditions that lead to the initial injury could continue to pose a health hazard both to the player who sustained the initial injury as well as other players; it is essential to remove that danger. Removing the danger could require stopping the sports activity or even transporting the injured person off the field of play. While it can be dangerous to move someone who has sustained an injury, it is more important to ensure the safety of the athlete by eliminating dangers that can result in severe injuries.
Returning to a sport after in injury is most dependent upon __________.

Explain why it is important to stop playing a sport after sustaining an injury even if the pain seems to go away.
Suffering an injury while playing sports is often accompanied by feelings of pain or discomfort, and just because the pain goes away, it does not mean that the injury has healed. Therefore, after sustaining an injury it is important to allow sufficient time to rest and allow the injury to fully heal even if there are no lingering feelings of pain from the injury. Continuing to play with an injury can cause further damage and significantly hinder the healing process.
Explain how immobilizing an injured limb with a cast can enhance healing.
Immobilizing an injured limb enhances healing by preventing movements that can aggravate the injury and make it worse.

People who have normal-shaped feet can choose just about any shoe because most shoes are designed to fit this type.
