Physical exams for sports

The sports physical exam is known as a preparticipation physical examination (PPE). The exam helps determine whether it's safe for you to participate in a certain sport.

-
Pure tone testing (audiogram) -- For this test, you wear earphones attached to the audiometer.
-
Pure tones of a specific frequency and volume are delivered to one ear at a time. You are asked to signal when you hear a sound. The minimum volume required to hear each tone is graphed.
ABI
-
An ankle-brachial index test or ABI test, which is quick and noninvasive, is the best way to know if you have peripheral artery disease (PAD).
-
Blocked or narrow blood vessels in your legs give you bad circulation. PAD also increases your risk of stroke, heart attack and other cardiovascular problems.
Cosmetic BOTOX
-
Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow's feet (lines around the eye), and frown lines.
-
Getting Botox takes only a few minutes. You won’t need anesthesia. The provider uses a small needle to inject Botox into specific muscles .
-
It generally takes 7 to 14 days to take full effect. The effects from Botox will last 3 to 6 months. The lines and wrinkles often appear less severe with time because the muscles are shrinking.
