Upper Limb Injuries
Upper limb injuries refer to damage or trauma affecting the arms, shoulders, and hands. Common types include fractures, sprains, strains, and dislocations. These injuries can result from accidents, sports activities, or repetitive motions, leading to pain, swelling, and limited mobility.
Treatment for upper limb injuries often involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE). In some cases, physical therapy may be necessary to restore strength and function. Severe injuries might require surgical intervention. Proper diagnosis and management are essential for effective recovery and to prevent long-term complications.
