Dr. Scott Worrell, Sports Medicine Specialist 
Sports medicine is a rapidly growing field of internal medicine devoted to treating injuries related to sports or athletics. While most injuries are to the musculoskeletal system, sports medicine specialists may also treat patients with exercise-induced asthma and other medical conditions. They may manage injury-induced pain through medication or therapy. Sports medicine specialists also focus on injury prevention by examining athletes prior to sports participation to assess physical condition, as well as by educating athletes, trainers and coaches on exercise practices, hydration, nutrition and medication. Sports medicine specialists may collaborate with related specialists, such as physical therapists, nutritionists and athletic trainers.
