Consult With A PhysicianWhat to Expect During a Sports Physical
During a sports physical at Broadway Family Clinic, our experienced healthcare providers will conduct a comprehensive evaluation that includes:
Medical History Review: We will discuss your child's or athlete's medical history, including any previous injuries, surgeries, illnesses, or conditions that could affect their participation in sports. We will also review family medical history to identify any potential hereditary health risks.
Physical Examination: Our thorough physical exam includes measuring height, weight, and blood pressure, as well as evaluating the heart, lungs, abdomen, ears, nose, and throat. We will also assess the athlete's vision and perform a musculoskeletal exam to check the strength, flexibility, and stability of muscles and joints.
Fitness Assessment: We will evaluate the athlete's overall fitness level and provide recommendations for improving strength, endurance, and flexibility. This assessment helps ensure that the athlete is physically prepared for the demands of their sport.
