An injury is any physical harm or damage to the body, which can occur due to various reasons such as accidents, falls, or sports activities. Injuries can affect different parts of the body, including muscles, bones, and organs. Common types of injuries include sprains, fractures, and cuts. Injuries can range from mild to severe, impacting a person's ability to perform daily activities. Treatment often involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), along with medical care if necessary. Preventive measures, such as wearing protective gear during sports, can help reduce the risk of injury.
