Sprain (injury)

A

Torcedura: This term is more general and can refer to any kind of twisting or spraining injury, including minor strains or sprains that may not involve significant damage to ligaments or tissues. It is often used to describe a mild injury resulting from twisting or wrenching a joint, such as an ankle or wrist.

Esguince: While “esguince” also refers to a sprain, it typically implies a more severe injury involving damage to ligaments or soft tissues surrounding a joint. An esguince is often characterized by more pronounced symptoms such as swelling, bruising, and instability in the affected joint. It may require more extensive treatment and rehabilitation compared to a simple “torcedura.”

A

135
Q

Dislocation

A

Luxación: This term is more commonly used in medical contexts and formal language. It specifically refers to the complete displacement or dislocation of a bone from its normal position within a joint. “Luxación” is often used in medical reports, diagnoses, and professional discussions.

Dislocación: While “dislocación” is also used to describe a bone being displaced from its joint, it may be more commonly used in informal or everyday language. It’s a term that might be used by non-medical professionals or in casual conversation.
