Versante Sud Pathologies and health in climbing is a training guide useful for the prevention, recognition, and correct behavior to prevent injuries.
Focusing on the most common injuries related to the practice of this sport, in this guide you will find some anatomy (necessary to identify the affected structures) and descriptions of the most frequent pathologies and traumas (with their main signs and symptoms) in order to provide some indications on how to recognize and understand them. Its purpose is absolutely not to promote self-diagnosis and treatment, but rather to better understand whether it is necessary to reduce training loads, observe a period of rest, or consult a specialist doctor or a physiotherapist capable of understanding climbing movements.
The authors are two highly experienced professionals in this field. Mirella De Ruvo, a medical doctor specializing in Sports Medicine, after her experience as the responsible doctor in the first climbing competitions in Bardonecchia and her work as a sports physician, founded a Sports Medicine Center, which is now a reference point for mountain lovers and particularly for climbers. Luca Colombo is a physiotherapist specialized in hand rehabilitation who has been working with athletes and patients with upper limb injuries for over 10 years.
