The accumulation of fluid in interstitial tissue space due to injury, leading to increased pressure.

A protein that forms a net to trap debris and particles during inflammation.

Chemicals released from injured cells that cause pain.

A phase lasting 3-4 days after injury, characterized by a strong vascular and cellular response.

The phase lasting 10-14 days, where macrophages perform phagocytosis to clear debris.

A prolonged phase lasting more than 1 month, often due to insufficient cleaning after an injury.

The stage where the body aims to grow new tissue (scar tissue) to heal the wound.

The process of fibroblasts migrating and proliferating to repair injured tissue during the proliferation phase.

The process of replacing destroyed soft tissue with living tissue.

There are four phases: bleeding, inflammation, proliferation, remodeling.

The first phase where the body stops bleeding, lasting minutes to hours.

Phase aimed at stopping bleeding through vasoconstriction and clot formation.

Phase focused on cleaning the wound and preparing for new tissue growth.

Five signs: pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.

Chemical released by injured cells initiating inflammation and vasodilation.

Widening of blood vessels to increase blood flow during inflammation.

Connections formed between capillaries as they grow towards a repairing zone, restoring blood flow.

The initial type of collagen produced by fibroblasts during the proliferation phase; relatively weak and randomly oriented.

The phase where granulation tissue matures and collagen is reoriented under mechanical stress to increase strength and organization.

The resistance of a material to breaking under tension; collagen type I has greater tensile strength than type III.

Healing starts within the first week post-injury, peaks at 2-3 weeks, and can continue for years.

Age, protein deficiency, low vitamin C, steroids, and local conditions like poor blood supply can impede healing.

Initial healing phase lasting 1-7 days, characterized by bleeding and inflammation, requiring protection and elevation.

Inflammation is essential for healing; reducing it can lead to longer recovery and poorer quality of scar tissue.

Range of motion exercises that do not cause pain.

Strengthening exercises with no joint movement.

Exercises that improve body awareness and coordination.

Phase of healing lasting 1-3 weeks, involves granulation tissue.

Phase lasting 3-6 weeks focused on strengthening and flexibility.

Lasts 6 weeks to 6 months, emphasizes returning to full activity.

Coordination between muscles and nerves for smooth movements.

Use of medications like PRP or stem cells to aid healing.
