Q

Stress fractures

A

Muscles become fatugued so cant absorb the added shock of exercise. So it transfers stress overload onto bone and causes a crack . Area become tender and swollen.

Q

Tennis elbow occurs in

A

Muscles attached to elbow used to straighten wrist

22
Q

Tennis elbow

A

Fhe muscles and tendon become inflamed and tiny tear occur on outside of elbow. Area becomes sore and tender.

23
Q

Screening

A
  • detects problems early on
  • highlihts current or past injuries
  • not 100% accurate
  • increased anxiety
24
Q

Injury prevention methods

A
  1. Screening
  2. Protective equiptment
  3. Warm up
  4. flexibikity training
  5. Taping and bracing
25
Q

Flexibility training

A

Active stretching, passive stretching and ballistic stretching

26
Q

Active stretching

A

Stretched position is held by contraction of agonist muscle

27
Q

Passive stretchibg

A

Oxcurs with help of external force such as another part of body, partner or wall

28
Q

Ballistic stretching

A

Performing a stretch with swinging or bouncing movements to push body part rven furthrr

29
Q

Taping

A
  • support + stability
  • kineasology tape is used in muscles as its more elastic than tape used on joints ut provides controller suppory as it expands as musclr contracts
30
Q

Bracing

A

Involves himged joints gives extra stability to muscles and joknts that are weak or previously injured

31
Q

Proprioceptive training

A

Hopping, jumping and bluncing to restore lost proprioception and teach body to control position of an injured joint subconsciously.

32
Q

Strength training

A

Prepares body for exercise reducing risk of injury

33
Q

Hyperbaric chamber

A
  • pressurised with 100% oxygen
  • increased amount of o2 breathed in
  • diffuses into injured area
  • excess o2 dissolves into blodd where it can reduce swilling and pressure to injured area
  • increases white blood cell activity
  • increases blood supply at injured area
34
Q

Cryotherapy

A

Cold temperatures such as RICE analgesic effect and limits pain and swelling by reducing blood flow to injured area

35
Q

Hydrotherapy

A
  • Warm water 35-37 degrees
  • improves blood circulation
  • relieves pain and relaxes muscle
  • buoyancy of water supports body weight so you can do more exercise than on ground
36
Q

Methods of recovery

A
  • Compression garments
  • massage
  • foam rollers
  • cold therapy
  • sleep and nutrition
37
Q

Methods of injury rehab

A
  • proprioceptive training
  • strength training
  • hyperbaric chambers
  • cryotherapy
  • hydrotherapy
38
Q

Compression garments

A

Imprive blood circulation and prevbt medical problems such as DVT

39
Q

Massage

A

Prevent+relieve soft tissue

40
Q

Massage benefits

A
  • increases blood flow so more oxygen and buttients pass through repair
  • removal of lactic acid
  • relieve tension
  • breakdown of scar tissue which can lead to mobility problems
41
Q

Foam tollers

A

Release tension and toghtness in muscle as well as between muscle and fascia

42
Q

Cold therapy

A

Ice bath or cryotherapy

43
Q

Ice baths

A

5-10 minutes. Cold water causes vasoconstriction . When leave bath vasodilation occurs fludhing lactic acid out

44
Q

Slee and nutrition

A

REM deepest sleep blood flow directed from heart to muscles

Replenish glycigen stores thriugh 20 minute window as enhanced exercise next day

45
Q

3 purposes of screening

A
  • highlight past or current injuries
  • indenting muscle inbalances
  • identify suitable rehabilitation programme
46
Q

screening aims to

A

identify those at risk prepare performers for sport and reduce injury

47
Q

injury prevention

A
  • protective wear
  • flexibilirty training
  • warm up
  • stretching
  • taping and bracing
48
Q

injury rehabilitation

A
  • hyperbaric chambers
  • hydrotherapy
  • cryotherapy
  • proprioceptive training
  • strength training
49
Q

injury recovery

A
  • compression garmements
  • massage
  • foam rollers
  • cold therapy
  • sleep and nutrition
50
Q

acute injury

A
  • dislocations
  • fracture
  • sprain
  • strain
51
Q

chronic injury

A
  • tennis elbow
  • stress fracture
  • achilles tendoinitis
