abstract="&quot; With historical exclusion from the sport and lack of research on the subject, there is a paucity of data regarding the injury incidence, treatment, and recovery of female wrestlers as compared with their male counterparts.&quot; Data demonstrate that female wrestlers are more likely to experience sprains/strains, whereas male wrestlers experience more concussions and fractures.&quot; Variations in behavior and physiology including risk-taking habits and ligament laxity may contribute to differences in injury incidence between male and female wrestlers.&quot; Rapid weight loss and eating disorders are important areas of future investigation for male and female wrestlers alike.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
