In Your Corner with CORA: Signs Your Little Leaguer K-12 Is Playing Through Pain

Jun 11 2020 | CORA Development Team

Your Health, Objectively. Treating Everyone Right.

Dr. Richard Lehman, Medical Director at U.S. Center for Sports Medicine hosts an important panel discussion on the topic of overuse injuries for baseball players. He is joined by a star-studded cast of collegiate and professional ball players and sports medicine experts with decades of experience in the clinic setting treating baseball athletes from youth baseball to the highest levels.

The current reality is that regular training regimens for players across the country have been severely impacted in recent months. And with that comes an increase in overuse injuries due to inadequate preparation or the inability to rebuild proper strength and function due to the demands of returning to competitive pre-COVID levels of play. Expectations have not changed, sometimes even accelerated to make up for lost time. In Part 1 of a two-part panel, we focus on youth baseball K-12 and little league players as travel baseball resumes and teams return to the diamond.

Our special guest panel includes:

  • Dr. Rick Lehman, Director of U.S. Center for Sports Medicine + CEO LehmanHealth
  • Dalton Schumer, DPT –  CORA Arnold (Missouri)
  • James Silvestri, PT, MDT – Senior Clinic Manager (Tennessee)
  • Tyler Kelly, PTA, ATC, VATL – Senior Clinic Manager (Virginia)
  • Zack Kelly, Pitcher (MLB and MiLB)

Learn more about the types of injuries that we often see after months away from the field and how to prevent pain and injury, rebuild arm strength and find your groove. Our panel also addresses some of the different signs and symptoms that you can look for to quickly determine whether your child is playing through pain but not telling you.

  1. What is Little League Elbow and what ages are impacted most?
  2. How do you get Little League elbow? How can you prevent it and recover from it?
  3. How does little league elbow differ from a strained ulnar collateral ligament (UCL)? Is a similar rest/recovery timeline to be expected?
  4. What are the predisposing factors? How can coaches help kids and parents avoid injury?
  5. What is Little League shoulder and how do you get it? What sort of recovery timeline is to be expected to guarantee a safe return-to-play?
  6. What is the recovery protocol for Little League shoulder in youth baseball and Little League players?
  7. Muscle strains, overuse injuries, different risk factors and so much more!

Modern day showcase tournaments and travel team play often places unnecessary stress or strain on muscles and ligaments. The good news is that injury can be avoided with just a little bit of education and safety. Many times what can be avoided ends up having negative ramifications in the short-term and long-term on your kids’ dreams of playing collegiate or professional ball at the next level.

CORA is in your corner with experienced partners, larger networks, and the resources available to deliver exceptional care to you — and uniquely for you!
