What is a Sports Physical?

A sports physical, also known as a pre-participation physical exam (PPE), is a medical checkup designed to evaluate an athlete's overall health and fitness for sports activity. The exam includes a review of medical history, physical examination, and discussion of any concerns or conditions that could affect an athlete's performance or safety on the field.

What to Expect During Your Sports Physical

During your sports physical, you can expect to answer questions about your medical history and undergo a physical examination. Your provider will typically check your height, weight, blood pressure, heart condition and lung function. The physician will also  examine your eyes, ears, nose, throat, and joints. Your physician may also ask about any medications you're taking and any previous injuries or illnesses that could affect your sports performance.

Who Needs a Sports Physical?

In Waco, TX, most schools and sports organizations require athletes to have a sports physical before they can participate in organized sports. Even if it's not required, a sports physical is still a valuable tool for ensuring your health and safety while playing sports.
