What’s Included in a Physical Exam?
Sports and camp physicals ensure athletes and campers are healthy and ready to participate by identifying any medical concerns that could impact athletic performance or safety. At Prisma Health Urgent Care, our comprehensive evaluation includes:
- Vitals Check: We measure an athlete’s height, weight, blood pressure, and heart rate to assess overall health.
- Vision Screening: A quick eye test ensures athletes meet the necessary vision standards for their sport.
- Flexibility & Joint Health Exam: We evaluate the joints and their mobility, as well as overall flexibility, to identify potential injury risks.
- Medical History Review: We assess past illnesses, injuries, or conditions (like asthma or prior concussions) to help us make the best recommendations for safe participation.
- Fitness Assessment: Our providers examine the ears, nose, throat, heart, lungs, and abdomen to assess cardiovascular and respiratory health. This helps determine if any activity limitations are needed.
