Musculoskeletal Injuries
Musculoskeletal injuries refer to damage affecting the muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments in the body. These injuries can occur due to various reasons, including accidents, overuse, or repetitive motions. Common examples include sprains, strains, fractures, and tendonitis.
Symptoms of musculoskeletal injuries often include pain, swelling, and reduced mobility in the affected area. Treatment may involve rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), along with physical therapy or medication to manage pain and inflammation. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to repair the damage.
