Playing sports is a great way to have fun and stay fit. And anyone who has played sports knows that you have to pay some extra attention to your health. If you play team sports, you may have had a sports physical. A sports physical is a visit to the doctor to make sure you're in good enough shape to play the sport you want to play. Sports physicals aren't just for kids. Even sports superstars, like baseball player Barry Bonds and soccer player Mia Hamm, need to go to the doctor to make sure they are healthy and strong before they hit the field.

You might think of going to the doctor as something you do only when you're sick or maybe once a year for a checkup. But your body works hard when you run fast, kick, throw, swim, and tumble. That's why a sports physical is important, especially when you're just starting to swim competitively, do gymnastics, or play a team sport, such as soccer, baseball, football, or basketball.

Some states require athletes to get physicals before they play for a school sports team. But even if it's not required, it's a good idea to visit your doctor to find out you are A-OK before you start training and playing.

What Happens During a Sports Physical
There are two main parts to a sports physical: your medical history and the physical exam.

Your medical history includes questions about illnesses and injuries you have had, such as asthma or a broken leg. The doctor also will want to know about medical problems that run in your family or any medicines you take on a daily basis. For example, has anyone in your family had heart trouble? Another important question is whether you've ever passed out, felt dizzy, or felt pain in your chest while running or playing. You should fill out the form with your mom or dad so the answers are the same. The doctor may ask additional questions during the exam.

During the physical exam, the doctor might:

Measure how tall you are
Check your weight
Take your blood pressure
Listen to your heart and lungs
Feel your abdomen
Look in your ears, nose, and throat
Check your eyesight
Test how strong and flexible you are
This time with the doctor is also a chance to discuss any other questions you have about your health and playing sports
