Physiological Responses:
Damaged Tissue:
Primary Damaged response:
This is the stage of the injury and will become the start of the rehabilitation process. When an injury occurs your body reacts immediately to heal it. This is often referred as the primary response mechanism. The main symptoms of primary damaged response are pain, bleeding and also inflammation.
Bleeding is a short phase of the healing process of a damaged tissue. Bleeding is normally visible when a soft tissue injury happens. The amount of bleeding at occurs will depend on the amount of tissue is damaged and also the amount of layers of skin has been pierced.
Inflammation normally occurs as a second response when damage tissues. Inflammation can occur immediately however

This will result in the scar starting to look organised. If the injury has been treated correctly then your should have full strength back with the injured area becoming full fictional again. The type 3 fibres (also known as collagen fibres) that are put in place for a temporary basis are replaced by type 1 fibres, this is because they are a lot stronger than type 3 so they are able to keep the scar tissue in place so help get the injured area back to full strength. This phase is a long recovery process and can take up to 12 months before it has healed properly. Functional rehabilitation helps assist with this phase of the recovery, this is because you need to challenge the injured area to help it fully recover, this can be done before you are able to play again.
Specific to injury:
Sprain:
A sprain is where there is a tear in the ligaments. For example if you roll your ankle while running this would cause a tear in your ligaments resulting in a sprained ankle.
There are 3 grades to a sprain.
Grade 1: This grade is where the ankle will be tender and swelling may occur however the ligaments will not be torn however there may be little tear.
Grade 2: This grade is where the ankle will be more painful than grade one and the swelling will be more visible. This is because the ligament is partly torn resulting with you not being able to move your
When you sprain and ankle the ligaments in the ankle stretch more than naturally intended and tear. “Sprained ankles are the most common type of musculoskeletal injury”-https://www.emedicinehealth.com. The ankle is made up of three bones the tibia is the major bone in the ankle and it hold most of the bodies weight. The fibula is the smallest bone in the ankle and the final bone is the talus which is the bone on the top of the foot. Stress on the ligaments causes them to stretch or tear. You can sprain an ankle by landing on the side of your foot when you jump or run, stepping on a not flat surface like stepping in a pothole or in sports when
• Second-degree. A ligament is partially ruptured, and you may have some difficulty moving your hand normally.
The body’s primary reaction to an injury is tissue destruction. The degree of tissue destruction will greatly depend on the injurious force. Secondary damage may occur from cell death. Cell death occurs because of the hypoxia associated with the injured area. The damage done in the primary stage
I believe that tissue damage recovery strategies are very effective and important as a recovery strategies for athletes.
Grade 2 is “no loss of consciousness,brief confusion,and other symptoms that clear up in more than 15 minutes.” Grade 3 is “loss of consciousness for any period of time.” Grade 3 usually leads to quitting of sports do to injury to the
the injury and like the short term effects are not the same for every injury
Mild ankle left sprain is an injury to the bands of ligaments that surrounds and connects the bone of the leg to the foot. It occurs when the foot suddenly twists or rolls that will force the ankle joint out of its normal position.
Grade I MCL Tear: This is an incomplete tear of the MCL. The tendon is still in continuity, and the symptoms are usually minimal. The athlete usually complains of pain with pressure on the MCL.
The risk of K/L grade 2 and K/L grade 3 and 4 for knee pain.
Level of measurement for the result is ordinal where stage 0-1 means no skin breakdown.
A grade 1 Mcl sprain is when ever it stretches less than 5 millimeters. A grade 2 sprain is where is stretches between 6 to 10 millimeters . A grade 3 stretches more than 10 millimeters. In grade one mcl injury the first week is for reducing swelling if there is any swelling. Make sure that the knee can be straighten
In this essay we will discuss the four different phases of the soft tissue healing process and also explain all the components of each particular phase and how it functions. This will also include sport therapeutic interventions that may contribute to the healing process and that may maximise healing of soft tissue.
There are two major factors that determine whether the injury is mild or severe which are the type of stimuli and length of exposure to the stimuli. Cellular injury ranges from gross physical trauma till gene defect which results in nonfunctional
Background: The most common way to sprain an ankle in basketball is to step on someone else’s foot, or to plant and to turn the wrong way.
“Inflammation is a nonspecific, defensive response of the body to tissue damage” says J.Tortora & Derrickson (2011), it is an effort
