Sports Medicine Unit 13- Solved
Acute-onset muscle soreness - ANSWER-fatigue during and immediately after exercise
Anatomy of long bones - ANSWER--Diaphysis
-Epiphysis
-Articular Cartilage
-Periosteum
areas most effected with contusions - ANSWER-quads and biceps
Articular Cartilage - ANSWER-covers ends of long bones, protection during movement
and cushions from impact
Avulsion fracture - ANSWER-separation of bone fragment from its cortex at an
attachment of a ligament or tendon; from a painful twist or stretch
Body guarding is also when... - ANSWER-the body naturally tries to "splint" the area
Bursae - ANSWER-(located inside the joint) - pieces of synovial membrane containing
small amount of fluid, continues to fill from irritation, increases pressure and pain
restricts movement
Bursitis occurs where? - ANSWER-in the joint where there is friction between tendons,
muscles, bone, skin and ligaments
cause of stress fractures - ANSWER-overuse
chronic def. - ANSWER-overuse
chronic overuse injuries - ANSWER-Need to understand the importance of inflammation
in the healing process
closed fracture - ANSWER-little or no movement or displacement of broken bones
Comminuted fracture - ANSWER-3 or more fragments at fracture site; hard blow or fall
in awkward position
(may need surgery)
Common sites for bursitis - ANSWER-shoulder, elbow, knee
Common sites for dislocations - ANSWER-shoulder, elbow, finger
Common sites for Myofascial Trigger Points - ANSWER-neck, back (upper and lower)
, common sites for tenosynovitis - ANSWER-flexor tendons of fingers, bicep tendon at

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) - ANSWER-12 hours post activity
24-48 hours post activity
3-4 days later
Diaphysis - ANSWER-main shaft- hollow; cylindrical and covered by compact
Dislocation - ANSWER-bone forced out of alignment and stays out until surgically or
manually replaced
Epiphysis - ANSWER-end of long bone, growth area in adolescent
epiphysis growth plate - ANSWER-found at both ends of long bone, cartilage while bone
is still growing, can cause growth problems if damaged
Fibroblastic Repair Phase - ANSWER-activity leading to scar formation and repair of
injured tissue
Fibroplasia - ANSWER-period of scar formation
fractures are - ANSWER-broken bones
grade 1 sprain - ANSWER-some stretching and separation, minimal instability, mild to
moderate pain
Grade 1 strain - ANSWER-fibers stretched pr torn; movement may produce pain but full
ROM is possible
Grade 2 sprain - ANSWER-some tearing and separation, moderate instability, moderate
to sever pain
Grade 2 strain - ANSWER-increased number of fibers torn; active contraction extremely
painful; discoloration possible
Grade 3 sprain - ANSWER-total tearing, major instability, initially severe pain then little
