Introduction. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. As a contact sport it has a high risk and incidence of injuries, which most often affect the lower limb. For the player to recover it is neessary to attend to well planned rehabilitation.Purpose. Analyzing the most common injuries among people practicing soccer and determining the role of rehabilitation in the treatment of these injuries. Material and methods.The research group was 101 individuals, 88 male and 13 female who played soccer as amateurs or professionals, aged 10 to 45 and had been training for a minimum of 2 years.Results. There were 487 injuries in total among all respondents, of which 370 were related to the lower limb and 117 to the upper body. Contussions and ankle sprains were the most common injuries. Every single preson included in the studies suffered from injury, but only 75.2% of them went to see a doctor after the incident and only 56,4% attended 66 rehabilitation. Statistical significance has been present in the time to return to sports depending on the continuation of physical exertion after the injury, in the time to return to sport due to treatment or the lack of it, in the time to return to sports in relation to whether or not rehabilitation took place for patients with serious injury. Conclusion.The most common sports injuries in soccer are lower limb injuries, including damage to muscles and tendons. Recovery time is related to the type of injury, treatment options and rehabilitation methods. People practicing soccer should monitor their training loads with a physiotherapist. This can reduce the amount of problems later in career or daily life.

“…same period [18]. The increased ED rates of soccer-related concussion may be attributed to a combination of increase in soccer participation, greater awareness and detection of concussions in soccer, and broader definition of concussion in sport [1,3,4,[19][20][21]. In contrast to other findings, the NEDS data set demonstrated steady decline of ICI over time.…”

Soccer participation in the United States (U.S.) has increased over time, and injuries as well as interest to prevent injuries has become more common. This study described Emergency Department (ED) visits related to concussions, intracranial injuries (ICI), and all-other injuries attributed to soccer play; described healthcare cost and length of hospital stay of soccer-related injuries; and determined independent predictors of concussions, ICI, and all-other soccer injuries leading to ED visits. The study examined soccer-related weighted discharge data from the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample, Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Weighted tabular analysis of univariate and bivariate analyses and weighted and adjusted logistic regression models were conducted. A total of 480,580 of U.S. ED visits related to soccer injuries were available for analysis between 2010 to 2013. Generally, 98% of soccer-related ED visits resulted in routine (treat-and-release) visits. However, the odds of transfer to a short-term hospital following ED evaluation and treatment was more than 37-fold higher for soccer-injured youth and adults diagnosed with ICI when compared to all-other soccer injuries; additionally, these patients showed 28-fold higher odds of being admitted for inpatient care at the ED-affiliated hospital. For concussion, soccer-injured patients with concussion showed nearly 1.5-fold higher odds of being transferred to a short-term hospital than did those with any other soccer injury. Soccer-related ED visits cost more than 700 million in U.S. dollars from 2010 to 2013. Notable differences were noted between concussions, ICI, and all-other soccer injuries presenting to U.S. ED. Albeit underestimated given that this study excludes other forms of health care and treatment for injuries, such as outpatient clinics, over the counter medications and treatment, and rehabilitation, healthcare cost associated with soccer-related injuries presenting to ED is high, and remarkably costly in those with an ICI diagnosis.

“…Further, it has been observed that children with head has been linked to long-term risk for cognitive decline, neurobehavioral changes, and neurodegenerative disease. Due to the difficulty in diagnosing subconcussions due to their lack of symptoms, removing athletes from a sporting event after experiencing a potentially traumatic head impact is used as a preventative measure [69][70][71].…”

Subconcussion can cause long-term consequences for patients. Increasing understanding of what causes the injury and how it can be assessed is important. This paper focuses on the pathophysiology, epidemiology, and assessment tools. Specific emphasis is placed on early diagnosis to implement treatment. Current research is targeting improved pharmaceutic and biomechanic innovations. Enhanced understanding of subconcussion will improve outcomes for patients and allow clinicians to implement treatments earlier.
