Types of Musculoskeletal Injuries

  • Fractures: Breaks in the bone, often caused by trauma (falls, accidents) or stress (repetitive impact).
  • Sprains: Overstretching or tearing of ligaments, causing pain, swelling, instability, and bruising (depending on severity).
  • Strains: Overstretching or tearing of muscles or tendons, causing pain, muscle weakness, and possibly bruising.
  • Dislocations: Joints forced out of their normal position, causing intense pain, deformity, and loss of function.
  • Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendon sheath, often due to repetitive motions that irritate the tendon. Causes pain, tenderness, and sometimes swelling.
  • Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursae (fluid-filled sacs cushioning bones, tendons, and muscles). Often caused by overuse, direct impact, or nearby joint issues. Causes pain, tenderness, and swelling.
  • Contusions (Bruises): Damage to blood vessels under the skin caused by direct impact. Causes pain, swelling, and discoloration (redness turning to blue/purple/yellow as it heals).
