Swimming is often called the gentle sport, yet thousands of repeated strokes can wear on the shoulder, neck and back. The Swimming Injury Field Guide helps lap swimmers, masters swimmers and open water swimmers understand how the water loads the body, recognize common injury patterns and ask better questions about care. Physician Steven E. Warren explains swimming injuries for the recreational and older swimmer. He covers swimmer's shoulder, neck and low back strain from breathing and kicking, the knee in breaststroke, and ear and skin problems. He also addresses water safety, cold water and open water risks, and the cardiac warning signs that mean you should get out and get checked. Practical sections cover stroke and training habits, dryland strength and mobility, building up yardage safely and returning to the pool after injury or surgery. A safety check before you swim helps readers think about readiness before the next session. Written for swimmers and useful to the clinicians who care for them, this book encourages thoughtful preparation and individual assessment rather than swimming through every symptom. This is an educational guide, not a personal diagnosis, treatment prescription or guarantee against injury. Return to swimming decisions should reflect your condition and your clinician's advice. Foundation First: build the strength, mobility and recovery habits that keep you in the water for life.
