Women's sports injuries

The same precision you bring to sport, we bring to your care. 

Women and girls deserve healthcare that understands the unique demands of sport. Yet recent research reveals that: 

  • Nearly half of respondents feel women’s injuries aren’t taken as seriously as men’s in sport. 
  • Four in ten say injury-prevention programmes often ignore women’s specific needs. 
  • One in five women believe that periods or related conditions affect their ability to participate in sport – and feel these concerns are frequently overlooked. 

At Cromwell Hospital, we’re committed to changing that. We support young adults and women to thrive in sport, with care that recognises the impact of injuries, menstrual health, and other factors. Whether you're training, competing, or recovering, our expert teams are here to help you perform at your best.

Sports injuries

Being injured while playing sports can be challenging. Pain, reduced mobility, and other symptoms can affect every part of your life, including sports performance.  

However, receiving expert care in a timely manner can make a difference in your recovery and future sports participation.  

At Cromwell Hospital, our expert multidisciplinary team of orthopaedic surgeons and consultants offers fast, accurate assessment and personalised treatment for a wide range of injuries and conditions affecting bones, joints, and soft tissues.  

We also provide a dedicated orthopaedic medicine service, offering non-surgical treatments for conditions such as back and neck pain, early-stage osteoarthritis of the hip or knee, and sports-related injuries.  

Our expert physiotherapy and occupational therapy team provide a wide breadth of services for children and adults.  

Our goal is to support your recovery with the most effective approach – whether that’s surgical or non-surgical – to help you regain strength, mobility, and confidence.
