Ensure Your Child's Readiness for the School Year with Sports Physicals at My Urgent Care Schertz

As the back-to-school season approaches, parents in Schertz, TX, and surrounding communities like Cibolo, Universal City, and Selma are preparing their children for the upcoming academic year. A crucial step in this preparation is ensuring your child has a current sports physical, a requirement for participation in school sports and activities.

Why Are Sports Physicals Important?

Sports physicals, also known as pre-participation physical evaluations (PPE), are designed to assess a child's overall health and fitness for sports. These evaluations help identify any potential health issues that could affect performance or safety during physical activities. Key components of a sports physical include:

• Medical History Review: Identifying any past injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions.
• Physical Examination: Assessing vital signs, vision, hearing, and overall physical development.
• Cardiovascular and Musculoskeletal Assessment: Evaluating heart health and the strength and flexibility of muscles and joints.
