Abstract
Besides the physical loss resulting from an injury, there may also be psychological distress. Commonly reported emotion responses resulting from athletic injury have included anger, denial, depression, distress, bargaining, shock, and guilt.1– 5 These are particularly seen in career ending injuries. Such emotional distress can negatively affect the athletes’ recovery process.Keywords
