Throwing injuries common among baseball, softball players as spring season begins
Spring sports are in full swing, but for many athletes, the season can also bring an increased risk of injury. In baseball and softball, medical experts say throwing injuries are especially common this time of year.
"It's definitely a very prevalent situation that we're running into," said Andy Mohr, a physical therapist at Intermountain Health's TOSH Campus in Murray.
Health experts say that can be due to athletes returning from months of rest and ramping up too quickly.
