What Is Dysport and How Can It Help Treat Sports Injuries?
Have you recently endured an athletic injury? Are symptoms getting in the way of your everyday life? Either trauma or overuse of muscles and joints causes most sports injuries. While common, these types of injuries should be tended to sooner rather than later to avoid the risk of long-term pain.
Many sports injuries can be treated without invasive treatments and harsh medications. A physical therapist specializing in sports medicine can quickly treat and improve symptoms from post-concussion headaches and muscular strains.
At SMART Sports, our highly trained physical therapists will get to the root of your pain and design a customized treatment plan tailored to your condition. To set up an appointment, call our practice today!
What is Dysport?
Dysport is a second version of Botox. Both are derived from a bacteria called botulinum toxin, which is scientifically proven to block chemical signals sent between the muscles and nerves.
Dysport and Botox are two FDA-approved injections that are most popular for their anti-aging properties but are now known to improve symptoms from a range of sports-related and muscular injuries.
How Dysport can help improve sports injuries
According to a study conducted by colleagues at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, patients who received Botox experienced pain relief caused by some common sports injuries, including plantar fascia issues, tennis elbow, and osteoarthritis, a common condition that causes pain and reduced function of the knee, shoulder, and other joints.
The toxin included in Dysport and Botox works by inhibiting specific nerve signals that control muscle activity. Dysport can relax muscles and treat contractions when safely diluted and injected into the affected area.
