Summarise the positive and negative effects on the skeletal and muscular systems of a young person performing contact, high impact and repetitive sports. There can be both positive and negative outcomes to a young performer. Positive effects can be the strengthening of the body. Negative effects can be that serious injuries can occur to the undeveloped young performer’s body and not be able to do that sport after. The skeletal system and the muscular system are both systems in the body that can benefit more from regular physical activity.
Regular ankle strengthening exercises are recommended to reduce the rick of getting an ankle sprain or reinjuring an ankle. Ligaments that are injured are the anterior talofibular ligament, which is the most common ligament to be injured, posterior talofibular ligament this ligament is rarely injured and also the calcaneofibular ligament. Most ankle sprains include the anterior talofibular ligament and the calcaneofibular ligament. With any ankle sprain if there is any worry about dislocation or fracture the person should be immobilized and needs to be seen. When someone sprains an ankle there will be swelling, bruising and tenderness and the pain will be at the lateral part of the ankle and sometimes at the medial part.
Myositis ossificans means that bone forms within muscle due to a blunt injury that causes deep tissue bleeding in an athlete. For instance, a soccer player that is repeatedly kicked hard in his mid-thigh would develop pain and bruising as a result of the soft tissue being injured. A hematoma would form and ultimately develop into this abnormal bone. Treatment consists of rest, immobilization and anti-inflammatory medication. X-rays can determine whether this has turned into a tumor within the soft tissues.
Introduction When an athlete sustains an injury while playing the sport that they love, it can have a debilitating effect. Depending on the injury, not only can they be forced to miss a significant amount of playing time (which can affect their livelihood) while they go through rehab, they also lose a huge piece of themselves. The physical part of an injury is only half the battle athletes have to face. Thoughts, feelings and spirit all contribute to sport performance, and are important parts of every athlete (Brehm, 2008). Injuries cause extreme pain, limit movements and depending on the severity, can require a large amount of time for rehab.
Alternative Treatments for Osteoarthritis Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic condition of the joints, affecting over 27 million Americans ("What is osteoarthritis?" 2009). It has to do with the breakdown and wearing of cartilage, which is the hard and slippery tissue that cushions the ends of bones where they meet to form a joint. Healthy cartilage allows bones to glide over one another, absorbing energy from the shock of physical movement. In OA, the wearing of the cartilage allows bones underneath to rub together, causing pain, swelling, and loss of motion of the joint.
Radiographs are a typical testing aid that are normal in determining ACL injury, with lateral marginal fractures being a common characteristic of a tear. This device may also depict a lateral notch sign (an exaggeration of normal indentation), on the lateral femoral condyle (Bach). Lastly, there is always an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) that is quite commonly used for an ACL injury if the diagnosis of the tear is unclear (Cameron). The care and treatment of a torn ACL is extremely crucial to the future capabilities and functions of the knee joint and it’s surrounding muscles. Initial care following an injury should consist of ice, compression, elevation, and unweighting (using crutches), continuing to use these measures until the swelling and spasm within the surrounding muscle subside (Griffin).
Which of the types of stretching techniques is seldom recommended in sedentary individuals due to the potential for causing muscle soreness? a. ballistic b. static c. PNF d. strength 35. Body composition refers to the different types of tissues that make up your body. The primarily include: a. muscles and bones b. tendons and ligaments c. skin and fat d. all of these 36. Fast-twitch muscle fibers are more useful in long-term endurance activities such as running or swimming a.
Sometimes sport can be a dangerous sport because player tackling to try to win the ball and there are a lot of injuries such as ankle sprains, concussion, groin pull and muscle cramps. This argument overlooks is the harmful side of soccer, but some injuries might not be happening due to you being healthy and fit. Soccer is one of the best ways to be fit and healthy because soccer requires a lot of running, making your muscle stronger to prevent injuries and increase your endurance to available to play full a whole
CLOSED REDUCTION AND PERCUTANEOUS SCREW FIXATION OF TALAR NECK FRACTURE – A CASE REPORT Student Name: Bong Chin Pei Matric No: MGI140016 Posting: Trauma INTRODUCTION: Fracture talar neck is rather rare, it usually due to high-energy trauma and account for 1% of all fractures. Urgent reduction and fixation is mandatory due to it tenuous blood supply which often disrupted by fracture displacement. These fractures are usually associated with life threatening injuries and concomitant skeletal fractures, soft tissues often compromised. The associated injuries may result in conventional open reduction and internal fixation impossible to be done in urgent basis and increasing the risk of AVN and non-union. Percutaneous fracture reduction and fixation can overcome this problem, and decrease complications associated with conventional open reduction and internal fixation (1).
This is needed buy players so that when they go in for tackles they are able to adjust their bodies to the right position to tackle the player. Health Not just the absents of disease but a state of physical, mental and social well being. There are benefits of regularly playing rugby to all 3 of the components of health: Physical • Regularly playing rugby will also increase your bone density. This is because exercise imposes stress on the bones which encourages the laying down of bony plates and the deposition of calcium salts along the line of stress. By improving the density of your bones you are less likely to get things like osteoporosis in later life.
