		<description><![CDATA[The University of Louisville Cardinal guard Kevin Ware sustained a horrifying tibia fracture in the Midwest Regional final today against Duke.  CBS insisted on showing multiple slow motion replays that demonstrated Ware’s tibia breaking and then puncturing through the skin.  While the injury looked extremely gruesome, there is still a favorable prognosis for Ware.  It is certainly a season-ending type of injury, but not career-threatening.  Notable players with similar injuries are Joe Theismann, Michael Bush, Edgar Sosa, and Sid Vicious ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you lead an active lifestyle, then you know that injuries are sometimes just a part of life.  Certain activities and sports are riskier than others from an injury standpoint, and if you participate in those then you also have to accept the fact that you may miss some time getting over an injury.  It can be a big disruption to your normal routine, but I can&#8217;t stress how important it is to take adequate time to let your injuries ...]]></description>

Ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries seen in sports, and also one of the most common that I see in my office. The typical ankle sprain occurs when ...]]></description>

The scaphoid, also known as the carpal navicular, is one of the small carpal bones of the wrist.  It is located near the base ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[University of Louisville’s running back, Senorise Perry, will miss the rest of the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) that occurred during their game this past Saturday.  The school confirmed this today at a press conference, and Coach Charlie Strong stated that Perry “didn’t take the news very well.”<br />
Unfortunately, a torn ACL is a very common injury in high-level sports.  After the ACL is surgically reconstructed, it takes 6-9 months for the reconstructed graft to fully incorporate ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hip pain is a common reason that people see an orthopaedist.  Some of the time, it is just a muscle strain and will get better with conservative treatment and time.  Other times, it may be something more serious such as a labral tear, hip impingement, hip dysplasia, or hip arthritis.  How do you know if your hip pain is serious enough to see a doctor?  Ask yourself the following questions to help you decide.<br />
Did the pain start suddenly?<br />
