Competitive swimmers perform highly repetitive motions, therefore characteristic overuse injuries of the shoulder, back, and knee can occur. A thorough history and examination should be performed by both physician and physical therapist. The combination of hypovascularity, fatigue, poor stroke mechanics, and the progressive instability of a hypermobile joint results in shoulder impingement. Medical evaluation should determine the existence of any glenohumeral joint instability or signs of impingement. Back injuries are most commonly due to disc degeneration, hyperextension, or myofascial involvement. Medial knee pain is most common in breaststroke swimmers and may be due to excessive valgus and rotatory stress. Frequently seen diagnosis includes patellofemoral pain, medial collateral ligament stress syndrome, and medial synovitis. Treatment will focus on elimination of inflammation. Rehabilitation should focus on stabilisation exercises for hypermobile joints, postural correction, strengthening and flexibility.
