Abstract:
Offering an interdisciplinary approach to the athletic adolescent helps to expand the evaluation framework when investigating a medical complaint. It is important to use the opportunity of each consultation to take not only a detailed history of the sporting practice, but also to investigate the social and familial context as well as healthy lifestyle of the young athlete. Considering young athletes within the larger picture of their developmental context of adolescence offers an opportunity to better respect the psychological and physical needs of this life phase. These needs are strongly related to the promotion of a good health among young athletes.
