A general practice handbook covering common aspects of sports medicine. The book details the types of exercise that are potentially beneficial and harmful in specific conditions, and also covers diet and fitness testing.
Sports medicine is a topic of growing interest in General Practice, and the benefits of exercise in daily life are increasingly promoted. However, in adopting an advisory role, the GP needs to be well informed with regard to the overall health of the patient and the relevant benefits of different physical activities. Most available texts currently deal with the injury side of sports medicine, containing too much basic science and orthopaedic information to be of use to General Practitioners. This book concentrates on the medical aspects of exercise as applicable to a general practice environment; providing the GP with guidelines on, for example, the types of exercise that are potentially beneficial/harmful in specific conditions.
