Document Summary
Pain becomes ghuide for therepeutic modality and therapeutic exercise application. Many cells on the periphery of the primary injury suffer metabolic injury b/c of inadequate blood and oxygen. Less metabolic injury means less total injury, less protein generated by phagocytes and edema. Damaged cell release chemicals that attack the tissue and uninjured cells in thje vicintiy, causing secondary enzymatic activity. Decreased secondary metabolic injury means there are fewer damaged cells to release these chemicals. Increase pressure outside the capillaries decreaing capillary filtraton pressure and helping to control edema. Most effective when administered within minutes of injury. Decreases capillary hydrostatic pressur and helps to control edema. Most effective when used in conjuction with compression. As we transition from inflammatory to fibrolastic phase, we eill introduce heat. Follow prescription: heat- 20 minutes stretch rehabilitation, exercise, practice, competition ice 20 minutes. Too much, too often, too soon, too little rest. After detailes history, adress training error, change loading pattern.
