Injuries are a fact of life if you?re into competitive sports.

The question thus becomes how best to ameliorate the extent of the injury when it comes, and how best to understand what?s happened to you so as to prevent it from getting worse. In this article I?ll review a couple of the most common injuries, explore how you can prevent them, and what signs signal they?ve happened and how to treat them. Read on, and prepare for the worst!
Let?s start with one of the nastiest and most insidious of injuries: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Your head is basically akin to an egg Blank AC Milan Jersey , with the brain being the yolk floating around inside, protected by the liquid in which it is suspended. But should your head suffer a sufficiently nasty bump, your brain is liable to bang up against the inside and bruise or bleed. Athletes in football, ice hockey, soccer, wrestling, basketball and cheerleading are most at risk, and this injury can run the range of skull fractures Antonio Donnarumma AC Milan Jersey , blood clots and damage to the brain itself, and can be anything from a mild concussion to a more severe condition like Second Impact Syndrome (receiving a second concussion while recovering from the first), or a larger contusion or hematoma.
How to prevent this? Aways wear a helmet. Always! Whether cycling or playing football, don?t be a fool?wear a helmet. Don?t tackle with your head in football, and in soccer try to avoid hitting the ball with your head. But say something went wrong and you?ve smacked your head. What are the symptoms of TBI? Vacant stare, slurred or delayed speech, disorientation, memory problems Andrea Conti AC Milan Jersey , dizziness, memory loss, nausea, vomiting, and loss of consciousness. Later on you could develop persistent head aches, poor concentration, depression, trouble sleeping Andre Silva AC Milan Jersey , irritability and light headedness. Treatment? If you experience the symptoms above, a doctor can stop bleeding, stabilize your vital signs, control the pressure in your skull, remove blood clots and maintain adequate blood supply to the brain. Worst case scenario? Surgery.
Fractions and dislocations are horribly common, and can be a clean break or a skin tearing compound, and can happen in any sport. They can happen as a result of impact with somebody else or the ground, or as a stress fracture due to repetitive stressing of the bone when running Alessio Romagnoli AC Milan Jersey , for example. You can also dislocate your bones by falling or colliding with other players, and this happens when two bones that meet at a joint become separated. Hand and shoulder dislocations are most common, but knee, hip and elbow dislocations can also take place.
In order to prevent these kind of injuries, make sure you warm up and wear protective gear. When jumping try to land with your knees bent, and be careful to play on surfaces free of rabbit holes or humps. You can also change up your running surface to prevent stress fractures, and strengthen the muscles around key joints to help prevent dislocation. Treatment? Emergency medical attention.

LONDON, March 29 (Xinhua) -- The formal triggering of Article 50 by Britain to quit the European Union (EU) on Wednesday drew mixed reactions on London streets.
"I guess we are all Brexiteers now, but I really wish this had not happened," said Phil Patterson, a teacher from Bermondsey.
"I voted remain, but it was a close call for me. In the end Suso Jersey , I chose to put security ahead of having our own parliament totally in charge and my views haven't changed since the referendum," he told Xinhua.
Bermondsey is a working class area of London. It is close to the new financial center of Canary Wharf, where international banks and finance institutions employ tens of thousands of workers.
Goldman Sachs announced last week that over the next 18 months, it intended to increase its presence in Frankfurt and Paris as a result of the Brexit process. Goldman Sachs International CEO Richard Gnodde said that the numbers involved were in the hundreds.
But on Friday last week, Deutsche Bank said that it would build a new headquarters in London for its staff, who are currently working at several sites across the city.
Over at Canary Wharf, banking employees expressed their opinion to Xinhua about Article 50 on their lunch break.
A financial analyst who have received education in Britain but with an overseas background, who asked not to be named Riccardo Montolivo Jersey , said that it was unclear how the Brexit process would affect the financial sector.
He added that he believed that London's status as a global financial hub would not be lost, but that it could change.
"We knew this was coming. I'm sure my job is safe, but I wish we hadn't done this. It will make it harder for sure for some businesses in my sector," he said.
Bank worker Louise Davies said she had voted for Brexit and was pleased it had now formally begun.
"The EU likes to tell us what to do, and I hope this ends that," she said.
Before the Brexit referendum on June 23 last year, experts had predicted that a vote to leave would hit the British economy.
Since June 23, the pound has fallen against foreign currencies Ricardo Rodriguez Jersey , for example the U.S. dollar. It traded at 1.48 U.S. dollars on the night of the referendum and on Wednesday traded at 1.24 U.S. dollars.
