Sprain

This term is frequently used to refer specifically to injury of a ligament and is graded as a first (mild), second (moderate), or third (severe) degree sprain

Sprain

Displacement of a part, usually the bony partners in a joint, resulting in loss of the anatomical relationship and leading to soft tissue damage, inflammation, pain, and muscle spasm

Dislocation

Grade 1(First-Degree)

Mild swelling, local tenderness, and pain occur when the tissue is stressed

Grade 1(First-Degree)

Moderate pain that requires stopping the activity. Stress and palpation of the tissue greatly increase the pain

Grade 2 (Second-Degree)

Near-complete or complete tear or avulsion of the tissue (tendon or ligament) with severe pain

Grade 3 (Third-Degree)

Stress to the tissue is usually painless; palpation may reveal the defect

Grade 3 (Third-Degree)

___ ligament results in instability of the joint

Torn ligament

During this stage, signs of inflammation are present

Acute Stage

Signs of inflammation

Swelling


Redness


Heat


Pain at rest


Loss of function

During this stage, ROM is painful, patient usually guards against the motion before completion of the range is possible

Acute stage

This stage usually lasts 4 - 6 days unless the insult is perpetuated

Acute stage

During this stage, the signs of inflammation progressively decrease and eventually are absent

Subacute Stage

During this stage, when testing ROM, patient may experience pain synchronous with encountering tissue resistance at the end of the available ROM

Subacute Stage

This stage usually lasts 10 - 17 days (14 to 21 days after the onset of injury) but may last up to 6 weeks in some tissues with limited circulation, such as tendons

Subacute stage

There are no signs of inflammation during this stage

Chronic Stage

During this stage, there may be contractures or adhesions limit range, and there may be muscle weakness that limit normal funtion

Chronic Stage

In this stage, connective tissue continues to strengthen and remodel in response to the stressed applied to it

chronic stage

This pain may be felt when testing tight structures at the end of their available range

Stretch Pain

During this stage, function may be limited by muscle weakness, poor endurance, or poor neuromuscular control.

Chronic Stage

This stage may last 6 months to 1 year depending on the tissue involved and amount of tissue damage

Chronic stage

also known as the inflammatory reaction stage

Acute stage

also known as the proliferation, repair, and healing stage

subacute stage

also known as the maturation and remodeling stage

chronic stage

stages of tissue healing

A state of prolonged inflmmation may occur if injured tissue is continually stressed beyong its ability to repair. There are symptoms of increased pain, swelling, and muscle guarding that last more than several hours after activity

Chronic Inflammation

A state that persists longer than 6 months. It includes pain that cannot be linked to a source of irritation or inflammation and functional limitations and disability that include physical, emotional, and psychosocial parameters

Chronic pain syndrome

The inflammatory stage involves theses responses in the tissue

Cellular, vascular, and chemical responses in the tissue

To minimize msk pain and promote healing, protection is provided via?

Rest (splint, tape, cast)


Cold (Ice)


Compression


Elevation

should be directed to the structure involved to prevent abnormal adherence of the developing fibrils to surrounding tissue and thus avoid future disruption of the scar.

Tissue-Specific movement

The intensity (dosage) of movement should be gentle enough so the fibrils are not detached from the site of healing.

Intensity of movement

Active movement is appropriate in neighboring regions to maintain integrity in uninjured tissue and to aid in circulation and lymphatic flow

General movement

These should all be applied to prevent immobility
