Hypothermia
Mild
• 33 – 35ºC
• Cold extremities
• Shivering
Moderate
• Rapid pulse and
breathing
• Urine urgency
• fatigue
• Slight incoordination
• 31 – 32ºC
•  in-coordination
•  shivering
• Slurred speech
• Drowsiness /
Amnesia
• Poor judgment
• Dehydration

Musculoskeletal
Injury
Musculoskeletal Injury
• Load exceeds the ability
– Trauma
– Overuse
• Injury may happen to
– Muscles, Ligament, Joints of
– Spine, Hip, Knee and Ankle
Overuse injury
• Muscle strain / Cramp
• Anterior knee pain
• Iliotibial band friction syndrome
(ITB)
• Plantar fasciitis (Sole / Heel pain)
• Tendonitis (Knee, ankle)
Muscle Cramp / Strain
• Dehydration / Insufficient electrolytes
– More generalized
– Water and electrolyte supplementation
• Muscle fatigue
– During / after exercise
– Accumulation of lactic acid
– Training, improve circulation
• Overload - damage
– Concentric – muscle shortening
– Eccentric – muscle lengthening
– Training, aid / support
Muscle cramp
• Management
– Replenish of water and electrolyte
– Rest
– Stretching
– GENTLE massage
Anterior Knee pain /ITB syndrome
• Front knee pain and Side knee pain
• Repeated loading (Overuse)
• Related to
–
–
–
–
Mal-alignment / Biomechanical fault
Insufficient hip, knee & ankle control
Insufficient flexibility
Increase loading to the patellofemoral
joint / distal portion of ITB

HKSI Sports Medicine Education Series IV
Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome
Plantar Fasciitis
• Heel pain
• Loading exceeding
the flexibility of
plantar fascia
– Overweight
– Increase pronation
Plantar Fasciitis
Tendonitis
• Inflammation of
tendon
• Overuse due to
Repeated
concentric
eccentric cycle
Traumatic Injury
Traumatic Injury
• Ligamentous sprain
• Muscle tear
• Fracture
• Dislocation
Ligamentous and Muscle Injury
• Grade I to III
– Grade I – Minor injury, no laxity,
function well preserved
– Grade II – Moderate Injury, Laxity
(lig.), functional disturbance
– Grade III – Complete torn, Laxity or
even dislocation, Great functional
disturbance
Site of common ligament sprain
• Anterior Talofibular
Ligament
• Anterior Cruciate
Ligament
• Medial / Lateral
Collateral Ligament

How do you prepare yourself
•
•
•
•
Reasonable goal
Reasonable training regime
Training log book
Addressing extrinsic factors &
intrinsic factors leading to injury
Extrinsic factor
• Temperature, Humidity, UV Index,
Wind ….
• Trail surface and condition
• Lighting
• Gear – Clothing, Footwear, Hiking
pole, Flashlight / Headlamp, …

• Balance / Core control / Stability
• Muscle flexibility, strength, power,
endurance

Guidelines for stretching
• Know the muscle direction and
location
• Chose a stable position
• Slow and steady stretch
• Avoid overstretch
• Normal breathing
• Hold for 15-20 seconds
• Repeat 2-4 times
Recommendation
• Before the walk and after long
rest
• Water break / Check point
• Slow and steady
• Change of degree of tightness
• Support
Calf stretch
Hamstring stretch
Inner thigh stretch
Quadriceps stretch
Outer thigh stretch
Back stretch
Neck and Chest stretch
Choice of Shoes
Function of Shoes
• Maintain foot stability
• Shock Absorption
• Provide firm lever system for
propulsion
Foot Type and Stability

High Arch
Flat Feet
Optimum

Floppy
Neutral
Cushion
Support
Choice of Shoes
• Trainer for Section 1,2, 8 to 10
• Hiking shoes / boot at night when
poor vision may lead to twisting of
ankle
• Hiking shoes / boot for rainy day
for Section 1 as it’s slippery in
San Wan Shan’s trail
Blister Management
• Check whenever feel feet
discomfort
• Blister may form in pressure area
with repeated rubbing
• Advice
– Good fitting shoes
– Change socks
– Double layers socks
– Apply cream
– Apply second skin
• Application of
second skin
• Secure it with
tapes
• Avoid creating
another
pressure area
