Soft tissues are groups of cells that provide support, protection, and movement in the body. They include muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, nerves, and blood vessels. These tissues play essential roles in connecting different parts of the body and facilitating movement. Soft tissues can be affected by injuries, diseases, or conditions such as tendinitis, bursitis, and muscle strains. Proper care, including rest, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery, is important for healing. Understanding soft tissues helps in diagnosing and treating various musculoskeletal issues effectively.
