Perception of Pain in Athletes of the Super Basketball League of the State of Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

Basketball is characterized by intense and brief efforts, being repetitive and high impact movements, which increases the risk of injuries. Pain is a constant presence throughout an athlete's career, and, in most cases, overcoming it is a decisive condition for success and the search for better performance. The aim of this study was to identify the perception of pain in male basketball athletes right after an official match validated by the Super Basketball League (LSB) of the state of Rio de Janeiro. The sample consisted of 130 male LSB athletes, with an average age of 28.02±6.26 years. The McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ) and Visual Analogue Scale (EVA) were used to assess pain perception. Of the total number of participants, 37% had moderate to high pain levels. However, the low perception of pain reported through the Global Assessment of Pain Experience (1.18±0.97) and VAS (2.79±2.18) may be related to the athletes' understanding that pain it is a necessary experience for the development of your physical capacities and, consequently, better sports performance. In addition, athletes tend to have greater pain tolerance than the general population. Based on the results obtained, it was found that the athletes participating in this study do not present a significant picture of pain.
