20. Medinfo: Sprains And Strains Medinfo s patient information on sprains and strains, a description of what happens to muscles etc. when they are put under excessive pressure or strain. http://www.medinfo.co.uk/conditions/sprains.html

Medical information for patients index search health books site map Sprains and strains Sprains and strains are a description of what happens to the muscles, and other non-bony structures connected to our bones, when they are put under excessive pressure or strain. The result is swelling, pain, bruising and loss or impairment of function of the affected area. Symptoms The first thing you notice is pain, often severe . This is usually at the time of injury, eg "going over on your ankle" or twisting your knee, but some times the damage is done by repetitive and less major strains and the pain becomes apparent later and possibly even the following day. Swelling is often obvious, and this is usually very tender The area affected may be reddened and rather warmer than usual. Bruising usually appears, often away from the area most affected, as blood which is released from the damaged soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, and tendons) seeps out along the muscles and other structures before coming near the skin. Pain and swelling causes the part affected to be difficult to use normally Diagnosis If in doubt you should seek advice from a nurse, physiotherapist or a doctor. This may be available nearby at some sports clubs etc., or may come from your own doctor's team, or possibly the accident and emergency department at the hospital.
