Winter sports are certainly popular in northern and central New York. But whether it's skating, skiing or sledding, falling on the snow or ice is inevitable -- and can lead to injury. This week on WRVO's health and wellness show "Take Care," hosts Linda Lowen and Lorraine Rapp speak with our own orthopedist Dr. Naven Duggal about the risks of winter sports and how to prevent injuries.
