Traumatic myositis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the muscle tissue following an injury. This inflammation can occur due to direct trauma, such as a fall or a sports-related injury, leading to pain, swelling, and reduced muscle function. The condition may also involve the formation of scar tissue, which can further affect muscle performance. Treatment typically includes rest, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications to alleviate symptoms and promote healing. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove damaged tissue or address complications.
