Soft tissue disorders related to use, overuse and pressure - what does this mean
Soft tissue disorders related to use, overuse and pressure occur when the soft tissues in the body, such as muscles, ligaments, and tendons, are exposed to repetitive or prolonged use, overuse, or pressure, leading to inflammation, pain, and stiffness. this can cause the affected tissues to become weakened, leading to further injury and disability.
What happens during the disease - soft tissue disorders related to use, overuse and pressure
Soft tissue disorders related to use, overuse and pressure are a result of the repeated application of force to the soft tissues, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments, leading to inflammation, pain, and eventually tissue damage. this can be caused by repetitive activities, such as typing or playing a musical instrument, or by excessive pressure on the soft tissues from prolonged sitting or standing. over time, the inflammation and tissue damage can lead to structural changes, including scarring and thickening of the affected tissues, resulting in pain and decreased range of motion.
