COVID-19 has had a profound impact on our society, classified by the World Health Organization as a global pandemic. In addition to impacting the way we practice, the pandemic placed unparalleled pressures on the health care field. Anecdotally, as practitioners, we have seen a wide array of clinical manifestations of this virus, that at times seem unexplainable beyond the pandemic itself.

Rehabilitation practitioners (eg, athletic trainers and physical therapists) regularly manage athletes who have sustained acute hamstring strain injuries (HSIs). The aim of HSI rehabilitation is to prepare athletes for return to sport (RTS) performance as soon as possible while also mitigating their reinjury risk. Athletes typically complete rehabilitation and RTS within 3 weeks of HSI; however, reinjuries frequently occur soon after RTS, and subsequent performance may be impaired.

Verrucae pedis are a common viral infection of the skin seen in children. There are limited studies of the prevalence, duration and impact of verrucae pedis in children who are immunosuppressed. The studies available suggest that, in these children, the warts are more widespread and are more long-standing.

COVID-19 has caused great changes in daily activities, especially in children. In Spain, to avoid infections, a home quarantine was declared, which caused a drastic reduction in daily or weekly physical activity in children. After the quarantine, statistically significant differences were found in terms of balance results, which were worse than before.
