I) During a pre-participation physical, I would advise the patient to play sports safely by warming up before playing, staying hydrated, and wearing the proper protective equipment. I would also tell them to follow the rules of the sport and stop playing if they feel pain or dizziness.

II) I would ask the patient what sport they want to play and how often they practice. I would also ask if they have had any previous injuries, such as concussions or fractures. Finally, I would ask if they feel any pain, chest pain, or shortness of breath during exercise.

I really like how you emphasized the importance of warming up, as it is one of the biggest cause of injury in sports. You've successfully summarized this whole chapter into a concise, but precise answer. Great work !
