Shoulder and elbow injuries are very common, especially with overexertion during throwing activities.
Baseball and softball throwing injuries in youth sports are on the rise including both elbow and shoulder issues. If a pitcher is throwing too hard, too often, or too many pitches without the proper training or rest it can lead to significant increase in risk of injury to their elbow or shoulder.
