Sprains, strains, and bruises: what’s the difference?

In your daily life, you’re never completely safe from painful injuries. Sprains, strains, and bruises are very common conditions and can cause pain—learn how to recognize them.

• A sprain is an injury to the ligaments that occurs when you twist your ankle, knee, finger, etc.This injury can range in severity: it may involve a strain, a partial or complete tear, or a complete rupture of the ligaments.
• A sprain, on the other hand, is a mild injury. The term “sprain” is used when there is simply a stretching of the ligaments without a tear or rupture.
• A muscle contusion refers to an injury caused by a direct blow without any damage to the skin. This injury can result in damage to the muscle fascia, an intramuscular hematoma, or even a tear in the muscle fibers.

Tips

Musculoskeletal pain comes in many forms and can have various causes, such as sports injuries. Cramps, soreness, strains. What should you do if you have muscle pain?
Muscle pain can generally be managed by taking pain relievers, such as acetaminophen, applying an ointment, or treating the pain with cryotherapy (cold therapy) and thermotherapy (heat therapy).

The various benefits of cold therapy are:

• Anti-inflammatory: This effect can only occur if a thermal shock takes place. The faster this reaction occurs, the more effective the anti-inflammatory action is.
• Analgesic and pain-relieving: Cold slows the transmission of nerve signals and reduces the sensitivity of nociceptors (pain receptors).

The various benefits of heat are:

• Vasomotor effects: specifically vasodilation as body temperature rises. Increased blood flow enhances the delivery of oxygen, nutrients, and proteins, thereby promoting cellular healing and, consequently, better muscle recovery.
• Pain relief: Like cold, heat inhibits the sensitivity of pain receptors.
• Increased elasticity of collagen tissue, which helps relax muscle fibers.
• A reduction in muscle spasms, resulting in fewer muscle contractions.

GLOSSARY ^(summary)

allergy
Skin reaction (itching, pimples, swelling) or general discomfort occurring after contact with a particular substance, use of a medication or ingestion of food. The main forms of allergy are eczema, urticaria, asthma, angioedema and allergic shock (anaphylactic shock). Food allergy can also result in digestive disorders.


analgesic
Medication that works against pain. Analgesics act either directly on the centers of pain in the brain or by blocking the transmission of pain to the brain.
Synonym: analgesic.


antecedent
Affection healed or always in evolution. The antecedent may be personal or family. The background is the history of a person's health.


convulsions
Involuntary contractions limited to a few muscles or generalized to the whole body. They are due to excessive pain or stimulation of the brain: fever, poisoning, lack of oxygen, brain damage. Convulsions may be due to an epileptic seizure or high fever in young children.


eczema
Skin disease manifested by pimples and itching. Eczema may be due to contact with an allergic substance (contact eczema) or be linked to a genetic predisposition (atopic eczema).


epilepsy
A chronic seizure disorder associated with abnormal electrical activity of a group of brain cells. Its manifestations, varying in intensity, range from the sudden drop in attention (absences, or small evil) to loss of consciousness accompanied by abnormal muscle movements (convulsions, or great evil). Partial epilepsy, as its name implies, does not concern the whole body: the jerky movements only touch one or more muscle groups.


mucous
Tissue (membrane) that lines the cavities and ducts of the body communicating with the outside (digestive tract, respiratory tract, urinary tract, etc.).


Allergic reaction
Reaction due to hypersensitivity of the organism to a drug. Allergic reactions can take a wide variety of aspects: urticaria, angioedema, eczema, eruption of pimples resembling measles, etc. Anaphylactic shock is a generalized allergic reaction that causes discomfort due to a sudden drop in blood pressure.


salicylate
A family of drugs, the best known of which is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin).


terpenes
A general term for aromatic substances of vegetable origin. These are traditionally used for their respiratory properties (stimulating, expectorant, antiseptic) and their revulsive power when applied to the skin. The most used are camphor, menthol, eucalyptol, essential oils of mint, turpentine, niaouli, pine, anise, etc.
Some terpenes, and especially camphor, have been responsible for convulsions, respiratory pauses in the infant, in case of overdose. They can also cause behavioral problems in the elderly. These products should be used with caution at the extreme ages of life.
