Injury
-many definitions
-overuse injuries result micro tramua
What is a microtrauma
Repetitive stress without adequate rest recovery
Tendinitis
Inflammation of tendon or tendon sheath
Tendonosis
Degeneration of tendon sheath
Strain
Graded local inflammation doesn’t affect integrity
Sprain
Loss of a tissue integrity can be based on the numerical scale local at least high: severe functioning loss
Intrinsic injuries
Super suitability of athlete to respond to avoid injury
Extrinsic injuries
Identifiable outside source
Three phases of tissue healing
Inflammation phase
proliferation repair phase maturation/remodeling phase
How do you health professionals determine the appropriate treatment of exercise?
On the type of tissue and severity of tissue or tissue healing phase
Inflammatory phase
Immediate and up to 6 days
Protective/promote tissue healing
prevent further injury reduction in swelling
is a baseline of signs and symptoms
EXCESSIVE INFLAMMATION
Swelling
Heat
Altered func
Redness
Pain
Repair phase
3–20 days after injury, repair phase starts,
up to six weeks,
scar formation,
excessive scarring hinders tissue repair
Remodeling phase
Last stage of healing
Continues after a year
Goal: recovers a pre-injury function or regain full strength
Refer to activity phase
Most anticipated phase
Bring back ADLs
Examples of intrinsic. Injury
Overuse
muscle imbalance
Examples of extrinsic injuries
External force
Falls
accidents
collision in sport
Contusion
Contusions effects of muscle bone and cartilages
Bruising
Grade one scale mild pain grade 3 scale not severe herniation or hernia third of bruising Bone is possible
What does research say about muscular imbalances
Certainpatterns of muscular development creates muscular imbalance
What is muscular imbalances?
Changes of length and strength of one muscle can cause disuse atrophy or excessive range of motion in dominant muscle
Physical therapist
Physical therapist services for impaired functional limitations and addresses risk factors and works to regain independence
