Football, baseball, basketball, soccer, and boxing-related injuries cause most emergency room visits involving athletes under the age of 19. Every year, 3 to 11 percent of school kids end up in hospitals with some or the other kind of sport-related injury. Most reported accidents are related to the face, knee, finger, head, and ankle. Concussions, scrapes, bruises, and broken bones are commonly diagnosed, and so are dental and orofacial injuries.
