and CORRECT Answers
, Soft tissue injuries Most common form of orthopedic injury
• Trauma to muscles and their tendons, skin,joint capsules, ligaments and bursae
• Hinder motion at joints
• Decrease ability of muscle to create force•
increase Instability
Contusion Sudden traumatic blow
• Intensity can range fromsuperficial to deeptissue compression andhemorrhage•
Interrupting continuityof circ. system bloodand lymph flow intosurrounding tissue
Hematoma formed
Can cause bone bruise
ecchymosis
strains - non contact injuries
- tensile force produced when muscle is stretched
- fibers tear, can occur during dynamic loading/ eccentric contraction
- local point tenderness
- pain w/ active shortening or passive elongation
-swelling / ecchymosis
1st degree strain grading - stretch of the fibers
- pain with contraction / with resistance
- point tenderness
- swelling
2nd degree strain grading - tearing of some muscle fibers
- ecchymosis
- similar s/s as 1st, more severe
3rd degree strain grading - complete ruptured of muscle
- total loss of function
- palpable divot in muscle
- pain, swelling, ecchymosis
Tendinitis - can result from acute injury or gradual onset (chronic)
- inflamed tendon
- repetitive trauma
- prolonged may result in full tearing of tendon
Tendinitis Grading 1 pain w/ slight dysfunction
Tendinitis grading 2 decrease function with pain following activity
tendinitis grading 3 constant pain that prohibits activity
Calcific tendinitis calcium formation within tendon with long term decrease ROM and strength
Tendinitis ROM -AROM may produce pain at end range
-PROM may produce pain when muscle is stretched
-dynamic tension produced during RROM produces pain
