Musculoskeletal injuries refer to damage or strain to the muscles, bones, ligaments, tendons, or joints in the body. These injuries often occur due to overuse, accidents, falls, or sudden impacts, and can result in pain, swelling, bruising, or difficulty moving the affected area.
Common musculoskeletal injuries include:
- Sprains and Strains: Injury to ligaments (sprain) or muscles/tendons (strain).
- Fractures: Broken bones due to trauma.
- Tendinitis: Inflammation of a tendon, often from repetitive movements.
- Dislocations: When bones are forced out of their normal position.
