(HealthDayNews) -- Con una temporada de baloncesto en camino, la Academia Americana de Cirujanos Ortopedas ofrece los siguientes consejos de prevención de lesiones:
Calienta haciendo jumping jacks, pedaleando en la bicicleta estacionaria o corriendo durante cinco minutos. Luego estírate lenta y suavemente, sosteniendo por 30 segundos cada estiramiento.
Selecciona zapatos adecuados de baloncesto que se ajusten cómodamente, que ofrezcan apoyo y que no resbalen.
Usa rodilleras y coderas.
Si usas espejuelos, usa unos deportivos.
No uses joyas ni masques chicle cuando juegas.
Evita jugar en canchas donde los canastos y las líneas demarcadoras están demasiado cerca de paredes, bancos, fuentes y otras estructuras.
