Study Notes
Causes of Strains
- Acute injury can cause a strain
- Prolonged overuse can lead to a chronic strain
- Twisting or pulling movements can cause a strain
Mechanism of Strain Injury
- Tendons can become strained when stretched beyond their capacity
- Examples of excessive stretch include hyperextension injuries of an arm or leg
- Eccentric contraction of the muscle while it is lengthening can cause a strain injury
- A tear of the muscle or tendon can also occur as a result of a strain injury

Myalgia (Muscle Pain)
- Can result from systemic infections, such as influenza, coxsackievirus, measles, and other illnesses
- Can be caused by chronic disorders, such as fibromyalgia and polymyalgia rheumatica
- Can be a side effect of certain medications, including cholesterol-lowering agents like HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors
- Abuse of alcohol may lead to acute alcoholic myopathy
- Heavy physical activity, repetitive movement, and lifting of heavy weights can exacerbate the condition, whereas light-moderate activity is generally helpful
Comparison of Musculoskeletal Disorders
Location
- Myalgia: affects muscles of the body
- Tendonitis: occurs in tendon locations around joint areas
- Bursitis: involves inflammation of the bursae within joints
- Sprain: occurs when a ligament is stretched or torn within a joint
- Strain: occurs when a muscle is hyperextended or torn
- Osteoarthritis: affects weight-bearing joints, such as knees, hips, low back, and hands
Signs
- Myalgia: possible swelling (rare)
- Tendonitis: warmth, swelling, erythema
- Bursitis: warmth, edema, erythema, and possible crepitus
- Sprain: swelling, bruising
- Strain: swelling, bruising
- Osteoarthritis: non-inflammatory joints, narrowing of joint space, restructuring of bone and cartilage, resulting in joint deformities, and possible joint swelling
Symptoms
- Myalgia: dull, constant ache (sharp pain relatively rare); weakness and exercise-induced pain
- Tendonitis: mild-severe pain generally occurring after use; loss of range of motion
- Bursitis: constant pain that worsens with movement or application
- Sprain: initial severe pain followed by pain, particularly upon movement
- Strain: initial severe pain with continued pain upon movement
- Osteoarthritis: dull joint pain relieved by rest; joint stiffness

- Osteoarthritis: dull joint pain relieved by rest; joint stiffness
Rectal Application of Medication
- Intrarectal applicators are preferred over digital application because they allow the drug product to reach the rectal mucosa, which is inaccessible by finger.
- Intrarectal applicators should be lubricated by spreading the product around the applicator tip before insertion into the anorectal area.
- Effective intrarectal applicators feature lateral openings and holes in the tip to facilitate application and ensure coverage of the rectal mucosa during anorectal administration.
Analgesics, Anesthetics, and Antipruritics
- Menthol, juniper tar, and camphor are safe and effective for external perianal disorders.
- These agents are formerly classified as “counterirritants.”
- Camphor is seen mostly with accidental oral ingestion, especially in children.
Corticosteroids
- Approximately 60% of topical anorectal agents contain corticosteroids.
- Corticosteroids act as a vasoconstrictor and antipruritic.
- They produce lysosomal membrane stabilization and antimitotic activity.
- Indications for corticosteroids include relief of itching, discomfort, and irritation.
- Corticosteroids are used to shrink and decrease swelling of hemorrhoidal tissues.
