Myths & Facts

Myth: You should rest a broken bone as much as possible

Fact: While rest is important, immobilization and proper care should be combined with gradual movement as directed by an orthopaedic professional to promote healing.

Myth: Older adults are too old to undergo surgery.

Fact: Age is not necessarily a barrier to surgery. Many older adults undergo successful surgeries, such as joint replacement surgery or arthroscopy, and experience significant improvements in their quality of life. The decision depends more on an individual’s overall health, medical history, and the specific procedure rather than just age.

Myth: If you can still play through the pain, the injury isn't serious.

Fact: Playing through pain can exacerbate an injury and lead to long-term damage. Even if the pain is manageable, it's important to assess the injury and consult an orthopaedic specialist to avoid further complications.

Myth: Sports injuries are only caused by intense or high-impact activities.

Fact: Sports injuries can occur during low-impact activities like running, walking, or cycling. Overuse injuries such as tendinitis and stress fractures are common in both professional athletes and recreational participants.
