Recovery nutrition plays a crucial role in replenishing energy stores, repairing muscle tissue, and supporting overall recovery after a workout. Here are some key nutrients and food choices to consider for optimal recovery:
Mentally preparing for ACL surgery is an important aspect of the overall recovery process. Here are several strategies to help you prepare:
A Bony Bankart lesion is a specific type of injury to the shoulder, particularly the glenoid, which is the socket part of the shoulder joint. It occurs when a portion of the bone of the glenoid is fractured along with the detachment of the anterior-inferior labrum due to shoulder dislocation.

Root avulsion of the meniscus is a serious injury where the attachment of the meniscus to the tibia is torn. This can lead to significant knee instability, pain, and degenerative changes such as early osteoarthritis if not treated properly. Here are the treatment options for root avulsion of the meniscus:
