There are some signs of Inflammation are a lot of pain because of the chemicals released by damaged cells. Another sign is swelling because of an influx of fluid into the damaged area. One more sign is redness which is due to vasodilation- the widening of blood vessels and bleeding in the joint or structure).
The clotting mechanism is the process of blood changing from its usual liquid state to a solid form. The clotting happens straight away after a blood vessel gets injured. There are three stages of the clotting mechanism, the first part is about the formation of prothrombinase. The formation of prothrombinase is when liquid blood gets into contact with some molecules. This indeed stimulates the formation of an enzyme which is then called prothrombinase. Then the second part of the three stages of the clotting mechanism is when the prothrombin is then converted to Thrombin and the enzyme prothrombinase converts and changes prothrombin into Thrombin which is another enzyme. …show more content…
The third and last stage of the clotting mechanism is when Fibrinogen is converted into Fibrin and that Thrombin converts and changes Fibrinogen into Fibrin which means the tread-like scaffolding is structured that form a clot and eventual scab.
A scar occurs when someone gets injured and the body is trying to repair the damage that was done. Scars are part of the body's repair mechanism after the injury on tissues.
A protein called collagen which is a fibrous tissue, does indeed replace the tissue that has been damaged. intense physiotherapy is needed because the collagen tissue that has replaced the damaged tissue is indeed weaker than the original tissue.
It is definitely not as pliable and flexible as muscular tissue and skin which means it is a worser quality tissue and not as good at doing its task and job. Overstretching and tearing of a tissue is what you call sprains and strains. That is when it occurs. A strain is when you stretch or tear your muscle or tendon, however a sprain is when you stretch or tear one or more of your ligaments. They both involve discomfort and a lot of pain and loss of function and impaired movement. Ligamentous tissue is involved with sprains and muscular tissue is involved with strains. Sprains and Strains are indeed classified as first, second and third degree Grade 1 (mild) which damages a few fibres have some symptoms such as: minimal discomfort/ tenderness movement slightly impaired but still functional. a mild strain when only a few muscle fibres are stretched or torn. The injured muscle is tender and painful, but has normal strength. Grade 2 (moderate) causes damage to many fibres in the body and the symptoms are: significant pain/ discomfort/ noticeable swelling/ tenderness/ impaired movement/ function impaired. There is more severe muscle pain and tenderness. There is also mild swelling, some loss of strength, and a bruise may develop. Grade 3 (total rupture) symptoms of this is: A lot of pain/ significant swelling/ bruising/ tenderness/ impaired movement/ joint unstable/ complete loss of function in the muscles.
