Abstract
|
|
|
Volleyball requires repetitive motion, spurts of speed, flexibility, muscular strength, and good balance in mid-air training and matches. Although volleyball-related wrist and hand injuries have often been reported, to our knowledge, this is the first report to describe a tendinopathy of the first dorsal interosseous and the lumbricalis muscles of the hand. In Korean male professional volleyball athletes, even though the most common sports-related injury occurs in the knee, in the upper extremity, the highest proportion of injuries occur in the hand, of which acute injuries are reported more commonly than overuse injuries. In this case report, we report a professional volleyball athlete who sustained recurrent pain due to tendinopathy of the second metacarpophalangeal joints of both hands.
