AB  - Sports  medicine  as  a  separate  discipline  has  grown  since  the  1980s  in  response  to  an  expanding  body  of  knowledge  in  the  areas  of  exercise  physiology,  biomechanics,  and  musculoskeletal  medicine.  As  more  children  participate  in  recreational  and  competitive  sports,  pediatric  health  care  providers  are  encountering  more  young  athletes  in  their  practice.  Familiarity  with  the  common  medical  and  orthopedic  issues  faced  by  athletically  active  children  and  knowledge  of  which  injuries  necessitate  referral  to  a  sports  medicine  specialist  are  essential.
