Javelin

Javelin throwers experience various injuries to the kinetic chain given the violent and abrupt throwing approach. Injuries due to abnormal stresses on the elbow are similar to those seen in - baseball. This causes abnormalities of the hip, shoulder, UCL and phalanges. Shoulder injuries are more common in swimmers, especially in those performing the crawl or the butterfly stroke because of multidirectional instability , which can provide a competitive advantage for swimming but can become pathological.
