Type: article

Abstract: Introduction: Bouts of throwing arm pain and injury are a common occurrence among professional and amateur baseball athletes. Many modalities to treat these are available and are widely used, including; physical therapy, manipulative medicine, non-medicinal and non-invasive anti-inflammatory measures, surgical, rest protocols, and analgesic medications. This study aims to determine the prevalence of analgesics used by baseball players for throwing arm specific pain and correlations that could suggest reasons for why these athletes use these medications.
