43
Q

Spasm definition

A

Sudden, involuntary contraction of skeletal or smooth muscle that causes increased tension in the muscle and often pain. Spasms of skeletal muscles are accompanied by motor neuron firing

44
Q

Cramp vs spasm

A

Cramp = strong, painful, usually short
Spasm = longer, can be chronic. Involuntary sustained contraction of a muscle

45
Q

Muscle guarding definition

A

a muscle spasm in response to pain

46
Q

Pain-spasm cycle

A

Reflex muscle contraction:
Lack of movement… tissue ischemia… pain… muscle spasm… repeat

47
Q

Neurologically mediated condition

A

Nociceptor activation resulting in T-cell activation stimulating an anterior horn cell to cause a muscle fibre to contract

48
Q

Muscle spasm causes

A

Pain
Circulatory stasis
Increased gamma neuron firing
Cold breeze/chilling of a muscle
Impaired nutrition

49
Q

Exercise induced spasm causes

A

Dehydration
Electrolyte imbalance
Hyperthermia
Over stimulation of nerves

50
Q

52
Q

A

Inflammation of a muscle leading to bone formation

53
Q

How does bone formation occur in myositis ossificans and which part of the muscle does it occur in?

A

It occurs due to a cascade of cellular responses
The elastic, contractible components of the muscle become rigid

54
Q

Contusion CI’s

A

Pain free AROM in acute phase
No passive stretching in acute phase
No on site work in acute phase
Frictions if on antinflammatory
