Resumo

American football is a sport with high contact and effort, which can lead to several complaints of pain and musculoskeletal discomfort. Thermographic evaluation has the ability to detect the increase in temperature presented by the injured anatomical areas. A case report, with a quantitative approach, of the evaluation of an American football player from the Remo Lions team in the city of Belém, PA, Brazil. The study was monitored by collecting the adapted MIR-Q monitor, numerical pain assessment scale (Dor RNS) and capturing images using the FLIR C3-X compact thermographic camera. The athlete reported that he trained at the club for 1 year, practices the sport 9 hours a week, after completing the class, being reported on the RNS pain scale grade 5 in the lumbar region and shoulder, heavily, with a feeling of pressure and intermittent. In the thermographic capture of the athlete only in the evaluation of the posterior region, in the ankle region, a temperature difference of 1.0°C was verified, suggesting a risk of injury with significant potential. The case report described shows an evaluation method that has been gaining ground in the identification of musculoskeletal disorders in athletes and presents reflections that can help health professionals in the quantitative diagnosis.
