Study Notes
Treatment of Muscular Injuries and Disorders: Phases and Protocols
- The inflammatory phase is a necessary biological response to injury, characterized by reactive vasoconstriction, followed by reactive vasodilation, neutrophil arrival, and myotubule appearance.
- The normal response to injury includes minimal scar formation, an increase in tensile strength, and a decrease in the number of fibroblasts, signaling the beginning of the maturation-remodeling phase.
- An abnormal response to injury can result in persistent inflammatory response causing extended edema, pain, and swelling present for more than six days.
- The early effects of abnormal response can be minimized by controlling edema, modulating pain, and facilitating healing.
- The proliferation phase involves the realignment of collagen fibers, angiogenesis, and collagen synthesis to promote neovascularization and cell proliferation and lasts from seven to 21 days.
- The remodelling phase aims to acquire biomechanical properties of normal scar tissue with strength and functionality.
- Type 1, or overexertion injuries, can be treated with physiotherapy techniques such as masotherapy, cryo/thermotherapy, radiofrequency, hydration, gentle stretching, and low-intensity exercise.
- Type 2, or neuromuscular disorders, include muscle cramps and contractures, which can be treated with stretching, hydration, and physical therapy techniques such as deep termotherapy, TENS, local stretching, and myofascial trigger point.
- Type 3/4, or structural muscle injuries, include muscle strains with different degrees of severity that can be treated with physical therapy techniques such as RICE/PRICE/POLICE, mechanical stimulus, isometrics, isotonics, eccentrics, plyometrics, and electrotherapy.
- Skeletal muscle ultrasound (SMU) is a non-invasive and real-time technique to visualize normal and pathological muscle tissue.
- Muscle contusions are common in contact and collision sports and can be treated with rest, ice, compression, and soft bandage/Kinesiotape.
- Myositis ossificans is extra-skeletal ossification that occurs in muscles after injury, causing restricted range of movement, pain, and a hard lump in the muscle, which can be prevented by avoiding intensive massage, using pulsed ultrasound, maintaining available range of motion, and iontophoresis with 2% acetic acid solution.
