Abstract
This full-day interactive pre-conference workshop that includes hands-on skills training is sponsored by the STFM Group on Musculoskeletal Education and Sports Medicine. The mission is to encourage, empower, and teach musculoskeletal skills to primary care physicians and those who train them. The workshop will review diagnosis, management, and treatment options of common conditions seen in primary care from pediatrics to adults. The workshop will provide both hands-on skills training and introduce teaching methods of these musculoskeletal skills to participants. The workshop will provide an update regarding the recent and ongoing growth in primary care sports medicine within the allopathic and osteopathic medical professions and residency training programs and present a review of recent updates in musculoskeletal medicine and sports medicine to the family medicine residency curriculum.
