REPLAY Ep. 69: Dr. Jake Erickson-Youth Sports Injury Prevention

There is still time to sign up for the 2nd Annual Youth Sports Symposium (check out our FB page or Mayo Clinic Health System's FB event page). This is an episode we recorded leading up to the initial one two years ago. The importance of Youth Sports Injury and how to hopefully prevent as many as possible.

Youth sports injuries happen, it's part of the game. Many of those injuries can be reduced or prevented with smart training and monitoring training loads. In this episode we sat down with Dr. Jake Erickson, a sports medicine physician in La Crosse, WI. Dr. Erickson details how overuse in youth injuries can have significant negative effects on a growing body. ​ Dr. Erickson gives some simple and practical steps that both youth and parents can use to help protect youth athletes. These steps include basic, solid training along with monitoring how many hours athletes are being active. ​
