1. Signs and symptoms and management of musculoskeletal sprains/strains/dislocations Signs and symptoms and management of musculoskeletal sprains/strains/dislocations
Sprains: stretching or tearing of ligaments that occurs when a joint is forced beyond its normal anatomical range
First degree- stretching of ligamentous fibers
Second degree- partial tear of part of the ligament with pain and swelling
Third degree- complete ligamentous separation
Sprain- sudden injury or fall that caused acute pain and swelling that got worse over a few hours, redness and bruising, active and passive ROM decreased. Radiography to rule out fx.
Strain: muscle injury caused by excessive tensile stress placed on a muscle that results in stiffness and decreased function
-effects muscle or tendon that connects a muscle to a bone, complain of “pulled muscle,” severe cases cause inflammation, swelling, weakness and loss of function-surgery may be needed
Management: PRICE (protect, rest, ice, compression, elevation), limitation of activity, physical therapy, NSAIDS, referral to ortho
Dislocation- complete separation of 2 bones that form a joint
Very painful and cause immobility, need immediate medical attention
Referral to orthopedics for possible surgery or reduction with application of cast or splint.
