Muscle and Ligament Injuries
Muscle and ligament injuries are incredibly common in everyday life. Sports and work-related activities are the two biggest causes of muscle and ligament injuries. The key types of muscle and ligament injuries are strains, tears, ruptures, and contusions.
A muscle injury is defined as damage to muscle fibers after overstretching, overuse, direct trauma, or sudden movements. A muscle injury is characterized by pain, swelling, or limited range of motion in the muscle. Revere Health is dedicated to treating all muscle injuries such as:
- Quad muscle injury
- Oblique muscle injury
- Buttock muscle injury
- Forearm muscle injury
Ligaments are fibrous tissues that connect the bones in our bodies together. They become injured when they are overstretched, torn, or ruptured. Ligaments are often injured after sudden twists or direct contusions. You can identify a ligament injury by looking for pain, swelling, bruising, or joint instability. Revere Health treats all ligament injuries such as:
- Deltoid ligament injury
- Scapholunate ligament injury
- Hand ligament injury
- Ligament thumb injury
- Scaphoid ligament injury
