Sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of upper limb - what does this mean

Sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of upper limb is caused by trauma to the upper limb, such as a fracture or a sprain, which can cause damage to the muscles and tendons. this damage can lead to a decrease in range of motion, weakness, and pain in the affected area. in severe cases, surgery may be necessary to repair the damage.

What happens during the disease - sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of upper limb

The pathogenesis of sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of the upper limb is a complex process that involves the disruption of the muscle and tendon structures, resulting in the inability of the muscles to contract and relax properly, leading to reduced range of motion, pain, and weakness. this can be further compounded by the development of scar tissue, which can limit the flexibility of the muscles and tendons, leading to further loss of range of motion, strength, and pain.

Clinical Pattern

How does a doctor diagnose

  • Physical examination of the affected area
  • X-ray imaging
  • Ultrasound imaging
  • MRI imaging
  • Electromyography (EMG)
  • Blood tests
  • Tendon reflex tests
  • Muscle strength tests
  • Range of motion tests
  • Sensory testing

Treatment and Medical Assistance

Main goal: To reduce pain and improve the function of the affected muscle and tendon of the upper limb.
  • Rest and immobilization of the affected limb
  • Physical therapy and exercises to improve range of motion, flexibility, and strength
  • Medications, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and muscle relaxants
  • Steroid injections to reduce inflammation and pain
  • Ultrasound therapy to reduce inflammation and promote healing
  • Surgery to repair damaged tendons and muscles

Sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of upper limb - Prevention

The best way to prevent sequelae of injury of muscle and tendon of upper limb is to practice proper body mechanics, use appropriate protective equipment when engaging in activities that require repetitive motions, and take frequent breaks to reduce the risk of overuse injuries. it is also important to seek medical attention immediately if any symptoms of injury arise.
