Exercise Science Section 4: Bone and Muscle Injuries and Joint Mechanics and Joint Injuries * Review Bone Injuries: Types of Fractures Stress fracture – most difficult to detect Simple fracture – no separation (hairline fracture) Compound fracture – bone breaks into separate pieces Comminuted fracture – bone shatters into many pieces Simple fracture Compound fracture Comminuted fracture *Stress Fracture * Exact MOI is unknown * Possible MOIs: * Overload caused by muscle contractions * Altered stress distribution in bone due to muscle fatigue * Change in ground reaction forces * Performing rhythmic, repetitive movements * * *Comminuted Fracture *3 or more fragments *MOI: *Hard, direct blow *Fall in awkward position * *Impacted Fracture *Bone is compressed *MOI: *Fall from a height *Immediate splinting and traction are required * *Spiral Fracture *S-shaped separation of bone *MOI: *Foot is firmly planted and the body is rotated in the opposite direction * *Contrecoup Fracture *Fracture that occurs on the side opposite of the trauma site * *Rest *Immobilize *Cold *Elevation * * Muscles are made up of bundles of muscle fibers, called fascicles T I s s u e * Fascicle is a bundle of muscle fibers A * A muscle fiber is a muscle up of many small n cell….made myofibrils a * Myofibrils contain filaments t * Two types of protein o filaments m Muscle Fibers y Myofibrils Filaments Muscle Fascicle * *What parts do you remember? 1D 1. Muscle 2. Fascicle (bundle of fibers) 3. Muscle fiber (muscle cell) 4. Myofibrils 2C 3B 4 A * Sprain * A sprain is a wrenching, twisting or stretching injury to a ligament. Sprains often affect the ankles, knees, or wrists. Result in pain, swelling, redness, bruising, and difficulty using injured joint. * Strain * A strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon, and is often caused by overuse, force, or stretching. *Injured area experiences: * pain and soreness * swelling * warmth, bruising, or redness * difficulty using or moving the injured area in a normal manner * Muscle Ruptures * There are three degrees of muscle ruptures * A muscle tear may be partial or complete and caused either by a direct blow or by overexertion. * A first-degree strain involves less than 5 percent of the muscle. * * mild pain and not much loss of strength or range of motion. Mild tears referred to as pulled muscles. * A second-degree tear is a greater rupture that stops short of a complete tear. * * * Any contraction of the torn muscle will cause pain. There may be a defect of the muscle - a bump or an indentation - at the site of the most pain. You should be able to partially contract the muscle, but not without pain * A third-degree rupture is a complete tear across the width of the muscle * * * * You will be unable to contract the muscle. This is what happens when someone suddenly drops while sprinting. The torn end of the muscle may ball up and form a large lump under the skin, and a great deal of internal bleeding occurs. Severely torn muscles may require surgery to heal properly. * * Muscle pull- very slight tear * Chronic tear- gradual onset of pain * Acute tear- sudden dramatic pain Muscle Tear Muscle Tears Muscle Pull * Shin splints *Shin splints is pain resulting from damage to the muscles along the shin. Pain is felt in different areas, depending on which muscles are affected. Shin splints represent an "overuse injury" and occur most commonly in runners. * Treatment for Muscle Injuries *R.I.C.E. *Rest: Stop all activities which cause pain. *Ice: Helps reduce swelling. Never ice more than 10-15 min. at a time. Protect the skin. *Compression: Wrap the strained area to reduce swelling. *Elevation: Keep the strained area as close to the level of the heart as is conveniently possible to keep blood from pooling in the injured area. * Types of Joints Fibrous joint Cartilaginous joint Synovial joint * Types of Synovial Joints Ball-andsocket joint Gliding joint Hinge joint Pivot joint Saddle joint Ellipsoid joint * The Characteristics of a Synovial Joint Bone Blood vessels Nerve Joint capsule Joint cavity (filled with synovial fluid) Synovial membrane Fibrous capsule Articular cartilage Bursa Tendon sheath Tendon Membranous layer Fibrous layer Periosteum Tendons: Composed of collagen (bundles of white, fibrous protein) Attach muscle to bone Vascular Ligaments: Tough bands of white, fibrous tissue Attach bone to bone Avascular * Tissue Properties * Common Sport Injuries of Joints Strains, pulls, and tears Terms used to describe injuries to all joint tissue types Tendinitis Inflammation of a tendon Dislocations Bone displaced from its original location Separations Fibrous ligaments that bind the bones tear and separate Cartilage Torn cartilage Shin splints Tearing of the interosseous membrane or the periosteum Tendinitis *Dislocation * Result due to forces that cause the joint to go beyond its normal anatomical limits * Two classes: * Subluxations * Luxations * * *Subluxation *Partial dislocation *Incomplete separation between 2 articulating bones * *Luxation *Complete dislocations *Total separation between 2 articulating bones * The Shoulder Joint Clavicle Coracoclavicular ligament Coracoid process Scapula Acromioclavicular ligament Acromion Coracoacromial ligament Glenohumeral ligaments and joint capsule Tendon of biceps brachii (long head) Humerus * Shoulder Joint Injuries Biceps tendinitis Caused by overuse of the biceps brachii muscle Shoulder separation Tearing of the acromioclavicular ligament Shoulder dislocation Occurs when the humerus “pops out” of the glenoid fossa Rotator cuff tears An injury to one of the rotator cuff tendons Shoulder separation * The Knee Joint – Anterior Quadriceps tendon Patella Medial (Tibial) collateral ligament Patellar ligament Fibula Tibial tuberosity Tibia * The Knee Joint Anterior (deep) Femur Posterior cruciate ligament Medial (Tibial) collateral ligament removed Lateral (Fibular) collateral ligament removed Lateral Condyle Medial Condyle Anterior cruciate ligament Lateral Meniscus Medial Meniscus Tibial Tuberosity Fibula Tibia * The Knee Joint – Posterior Femur Adductor magnus tendon Medial head of gastrocnemius tendon Semimembranosus tendon Lateral head of gastrocnemius tendon Oblique popliteal ligament Medial (Tibial) collateral ligament Lateral (Fibular) collateral ligament Fibular head Fibula Tibia * The Knee Joint – Posterior (deep) Femur Anterior cruciate ligament Posterior meniscofemoral ligament Medial meniscus Medial (Tibial) collateral Popliteal tendon Lateral meniscus ligament Posterior cruciate Lateral (Fibular) collateral ligament Fibula Tibia * Knee Joint Injuries Knee ligament tears Q-angle may contribute to the predisposition of ACL tears Osgood-Schlatter syndrome Affects the epiphyseal plate of the tibial tuberosity Patellofemoral Syndrome (PFS) Gradual onset of anterior knee pain/pain around the patella OsgoodSchlatter syndrome * The Ankle Joint – Medial View Tibia Medial malleolus Deltoid ligament Calcaneal (Achilles) tendon Long plantar ligament * The Ankle Joint – Lateral View Tibia Fibula Lateral malleolus Anterior tibiofibular ligament Posterior tibiofibular ligament Posterior talofibular ligament Anterior talofibular ligament Calcaneus Anterior talofibular ligament * Ankle Joint Injuries Inversion sprains “twisted ankle” Eversion sprains Occurs to the deltoid ligament Pott’s Fracture A force on the medial side of ankle causing the deltoid ligament to rip off the tip of the medial malleolus; and a break of the fibula Inversion sprain * Proper Treatment of an Injury S.H.A.R.P P.I.E.R. Principle Swelling: instantly or over time Pressure: tensor wrap Heat: increased temperature in the area Ice: placed on affected area Altered: tissue will not function properly Elevate: to reduce swelling Red: in colour Restrict: tensors, slings, or crutches Painful: to touch or move
