But you should be careful if other times playing the waves at the beach. A study in Delaware show that the number of people injured in coastal waves increasing. Types of wounds are also getting worse now.
The power of the ocean and the waves seemed to be quite large, even though the beach is shallow. One researcher suggested to swim at beaches that have guards. Also, do not ever come back to the waves.
Over the last three years, more than 1,100 travelers visiting the Emergency department unit (ICU) due to exposure to ocean waves. Wounds vary, ranging from scratches or wounds deep enough, a broken bone, organ trauma, until death.
The most common injury was a broken collarbone, dislocated shoulder, neck pain, or ankle and knee sprains. Most accidents occur in places that are commonly used for surfing and the surf area began to emerge and fall. Waves can 'hit' people swimming or surfing, as well as the 'slam' em into the sand. This is why the injury occurred.
"Historically, most of the injuries caused by the waves rarely reported. This is the first study to record all types of injuries that occur due to waves in the ocean," said Paul Cowan of Beebe Medical Center in Lewes, as reported by U.S. News.
Cowan also further explained that despite injuries and back or neck fractures are rare, but some patients experience severe accident to change their lives. Through this research should begin to be aware of the power possessed by the sea, and remain alert while playing there.
