According
to the surveys done to the amateur, professional and ex-players of this game,
done by the school of physical therapists of Buenos Aires; Argentina, they
concluded that the most common side effects when playing polo are lesions on
the superior limbs 50%, inferior limbs 43% and spinal injuries 7%.
With superior extremities, the most common
injuries are shoulder, elbow and wrist, this is due to the fact that these limbs are
in constant usage when galloping and restraining, additionally carrying the
mallet and the horse whip, with the repetitive movement and the strength of
hitting the ball on both sides of the horse, cause negative effects with time.
This without even mentioning the risk of being hit by a ball, horse or having a
fall.
