Diagnostics, therapy and prevention of hamstring muscles injury in sport
HUŇÁČEK, Jakub
Hamstring muscle injuries are one of the most common injuries in sports, where are typically involved dynamic movements like acceleration and deceleration, change of direction, high-speed running/sprinting, jumping and last but not least acrobatic position of a leg. Hamstring muscle injuries are mostly caused by shortening of the flexors of the knee, weakening strength of the hamstring muscles, pelvic anteversion and glute inhibition or weakness. In my opinion coaches don't lay enough stress on prevention of this injury particularly in semi-professional level. If this injury occur athlete often doesn't undergo rehabilitation program. Athlete solve this injury by resting and after pain sings fade away athlete comes back to physical activity too soon and reinjured himself again. Reinjury is often more serious than the previous one. From my point of view hamstring muscle injury is a serious problem and it shouldn't be underestimate. The main point of this bachelor's thesis is to create rehabilitation programme for safe return to physical activity with minimal risk of reinjury. Secondly to find out the incidence of this injury by making a questionnaire for athletes. This thesis contains three case interpretations of football players from FC Rokycany, who have hamstring muscle injury in the past years. These case interpretations involve two examination and therapy. I honestly hope that this bachelor's thesis could help spread the awareness of this injury and its seriousness. It could serve as educational material for physical therapist, athletes and coaches.
