Sports physicals aim to examine your overall health and medical history to offer insight into your fitness journey. Although this physical examination can be performed on anyone who desires more information on their health, they are usually carried out on athletes and children/teenagers who desire to take sports lessons.
For athletes, these tests may help identify potential risks or issues hindering their sports performance. No matter your age or skill level, knowing more about the state of your body can help you avoid sports injuries and upgrade your athletic achievements.
Commonly, schools and organizations ask for sports physicals for children who want to join a sports team or a physical activity camp. This is done to screen for any condition needing special attention before starting any athletic activity.
Our team at Carolina Urgent Care offers you a deeper understanding of your physical health to achieve your best athletic performance. If you or a loved one would like a sports physical evaluation, don’t hesitate to contact us, schedule an appointment, or visit us at our Chapel Hill or Durham location.
