In Herodotus’ The History and in the Mike Webster Sports Injury Series articles, both Croesus and Mike Webster are significant examples of being a “horrible warning”.

This evidence based practice article explores the persistent concussive symptoms (symptoms lasting more than 90 days post-injury) in students from middle school, high school, and college that obtain many sport-related concussions. The studies by Harmon et al (2013) and Doolan, Day, Maerlender, Goforth & Brolinson (2012), found that just in the United states alone, there are over a million concussions every year and there are at least 50% of the concussions that are not reported. One that acquires a concussion will go through neurocognitive testing, see a physician, and go through screenings and more. Although these methods for management are being done to treat a concussion, there is not any evidence based practice to say that those methods are actually working.

Other factors that may contribute to fractures include: vigorous exercise, malnutrition, genetic factors, and osteoporosis. The most common cause of a distal radius fracture is falling onto an outstretched arm (Ignatavicius & Workman, 2013). “Wrist fractures of the distal radius are common and may present special problems for the surgeon and therapist.
