Common Pickleball Injuries

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.

Guest: Joshua M. Romero, M.D.

Pickleball has become one of the fastest growing sports in the U.S., especially among older adults. This rapid rise in popularity has also resulted in a significant number and variety of sports-related injuries. It’s important for primary care clinicians to recognize the most common injuries and their risk factors. We should also discuss preventive strategies with our patients to reduce their risk of injury. Is pickleball so dangerous or do the many injuries result from the popularity of the sport? What health conditions often seen in older individuals place them at increased risk of injury? What are some practical preventive strategies we can recommend to our patients who are planning to start playing the sport? I’ll get answers to these questions from my guest, Dr. Joshua Romero, a sports medicine physician in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the Mayo Clinic.
