589:) where weight is a factor, dancers are at a higher risk for developing eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia. According to research, about 12% of dancers have eating disorders and 16.4% of ballet dancers have eating disorders. Many young dancers, believing that the ideal dancer must be thin, may begin controlling their diets, sometimes obsessively. There are high standards, one of which being the idea of perfectionism and having the ideal body shape. Many dancers feel pressure to achieve this goal. Because of this, dancers are three times as likely to develop eating disorders, more particularly anorexia nervosa and EDNOS. Such dancers may be unaware of or may choose to ignore the fact that an
435:. The most common injuries for ballet dancers are snapping hip syndrome and foot and ankle injuries. A dancer's feet and ankles are vulnerable to a wide range of injuries including stress fractures, tendon injuries, sprains and strains. Much of this is due to not only the emphasis of footwork in dance, but also the footwear. Dancers either wear pointe shoes, bare feet, a soft shoe of some kind or heels, all of which offer no support. Shoulder injuries can be common in male dancers due to lifting, partnering and floor work that is commonly seen in modern dance. The periscapular muscles assist in keeping the shoulder still and steady, these muscles are at greater risk for injuries among dancers.
406:. Some dances, such as ballet, are very strenuous on the body. Research shows that dancers in elite pre-professional companies have 1.38 injuries per 1000 hours of dancing, with dancers averaging about 30.3 hours per week. The most common injury was to the lower extremities, with ankle being the most common. The injuries on average took about 7 days to heal with foot injuries taking the longest at 14 days and thigh injuries being the lowest at 2 days. Another risk dancers face are eating disorders. They are constantly judged based on their looks and expected to have toned, slim bodies. This can lead to a lot of health risks.
461:. Choreographers and dance instructors will often put certain demands on their students and dancers without taking into consideration that each dancer is faced with different anatomical limitations. Dancers will strive to achieve the ideal aesthetic in their respective dance technique by over compensating for their limitations and thus presenting themselves with a higher risk for injury. Damage may also result from having a student perform movements for which they are not prepared, care must be taken that the student is not "pushed" inappropriately.

When in fact those dancers that "work through" their pain more often than not end up worsening their symptoms and prolonging their recovery. Eighty percent of professional dancers will be injured in some way during their careers; 50 percent of dancers from large ballet companies and 40 percent from small companies will miss performances due to injury.
