Athletes often experience these things, and so are ballerinas. But these injuries served as their strength to do better and learn from their mistakes so that they could avoid being injured again. Because in the first place, if they became injured they will never be able to train or dance which is a disadvantage for them.
According to Science Daily, ballet dancers are as vulnerable as athletes are when it comes to injuries because ballet is a very pressure-packed activity with a tremendous amount of competition the same with any sports. And one of the common injury among sports and dance is the ankle sprain. It is when the ligaments near the ankle teared apart. Sounds awful, right? This usually happens when the ankle is in a position that doesn't usually encounter. Other reason is that they have a poor fitting footwear or a poor technique in doing such things.
Another one is cramps. This usually happens to athletes and dancers as well. This is unpleasant, often painful sensations caused by muscle contraction or over shortening. (Wikipedia) This mostly happens when the person does not have a proper stretching or does not stretched at all before playing or dancing.
These are just some common injuries athletes and dancers are experiencing. But these injuries does ot serve as a hindrance to them but rather it serves as a way for them to improve more and to try their best to avoid those injuries again so that they will not miss a training or a game or performance.
