Abstract
While doing a teen's preparticipation exam, the physician can go beyond sports-specific concerns to detect health problems in other areas. The examiner, whether through verbal queries or a questionnaire, can uncover concerns and risks for such common teen problems as drug use, sexually transmitted disease, and delayed development.
