Agreed, they aren’t uncommon in many different industries. And no, the procedure isn’t related to being traded, but injuries behind them are extremely common to being traded. There wouldn’t be a procedure if there wasn’t a reason for that procedure.

That reason isn't required to be chronic in nature, either. Yes, in many cases it is administered due to chronic conditions, but "one off" applications are used to treat minor disc herniation, for example, which is usually temporary. It appears that is the most common condition for which athletes receive the ESI, at least according to Mr. Google.
