Abstract:
A Forum For Our Readers Sportsmedicine Forum is intended to provide a sounding board for our readers. Perhaps you have a special way to treat a common medical problem, or you may want to air your views on a controversial topic. You may object to an article that we have published, or you may want to support one. You may have a new trend to report, identified through an interesting case or a series of patients. Whatever your ideas, we invite you to send them to us. Illustrative figures are welcomed.
