OBJECTIVES
A. Execute the proper way of managing injuries and/or first aid.
Risk Mitigation
and
Management
RISK OF MUSCULOSKELETAL INJURIES
Bones
Joints
Ligaments
Muscles, and
Tendons
Two types of
Injuries
1. Acute injuries- (e.g. sprained ankle, strained back,
fractured hand) are those that suddenly occurs during an
activity.
2. Chronic injuries- (e.g. runner’s knee, jumper’s knee,
tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, patellofemoral syndrome, iliotibial
syndrome) usually result from overuse.
What are the types of musculoskeletal
pain?
Bone pain
- Injuries such as bone fractures or other musculoskeletal injuries
cause bone pain.
Joint pain
- Joint pain is discomfort that arises from any joint. The medical
word for joint pain is arthralgia.
Muscle pain
- Originates in any of the muscles in the body. The medical term for
muscle is myalgia.
Tendon and ligament pain
-Ligaments and tendons are strong bands of tissue that connect your joints and
Sprains, strains and overuse injuries can lead to tendon or ligament pain
What causes musculoskeletal pain?
Bone fractures.
Poor posture.
Sprains.
What causes musculoskeletal pain?
Bone fracture Joint Dislocation Overuse Injuries
Stretch regularly.
Techniques for reducing the risk of injury
Dynamic warm-up
Management of Injuries
You can find out if an injury exists by looking at and feeling
the following signs:
Deformity
Open wounds
Tenderness and pain , and
Swelling
Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation
1. REST
- Avoid moving the injured part as well as stopping your
activity altogether to keep from aggravating it.
2. ICE
- Immediately apply ice or a cold pack, or submerge in
cold water the injured area for 15 to 30 minutes every
two or three hours, or three to five times a day for the
first 24 to 48 hours.
3.COMPRESSION
- Apply an elastic bandage or wrap in an upward, overlapping spiral on
the injured area, specially the foot, ankle, knee, thigh, hand, or elbow.
The even, slightly tight pressure limits the ability of the skin and
other tissues to expand and reduces internal bleeding.
4. ELEVATION
- Elevating the injured area decreases the blood flow and minimizes
swelling.
