Sažetak
Introduction: Handball is a team sport which requires players' mental and physical-tactical fit-ness. It involves many changes in direction, jumps and jump-landings, that may cause acute traumatic injuries. The aim of the paper is to present the most common injuries in handball, age groups at risk, and medical inter ventions and rehabilitation measures for handball injuries. Methods: Literature search was performed using the following databases: PubMed, Sports Health, Health and Sport, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, with a cut-off date 15 December 2019. The sources are listed in the references and include those dealing with acute handball injuries, medical inter ventions, rehabilitation measures with the use of active or thoses in spor t injuries. The key words used in database search were from several categories associated with the PICO acronym (Population, Intervention, Control, Outcome). Result and Discussion: Most common injuries are ankle joint distortion and dislocation, vulnera- ble age groups are younger players and females. Among senior players, common are acute knee injuries of the anterior cruciate ligament, posterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral liga-ment. Initial treatment includes PRICE therapy (protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation). After medical examination and a diagnosis from a specialist, individualised physiotherapy may be star ted divided in several stages, adjusted to the injur y, degree of strain, par tial or complete rupture of the ligament system, and to the needs of the player. Conclusion: Improvements in sport medicine and rehabilitation accelerate recovery of the player and his early return to training and spor t. A stepwise process of his return involves fur ther physi-cal therapy sessions, excercises, use of bandages, active or thoses and restraints.
