Document Summary
Andrei markov tore his acl in april 2010. It is possible to play with bracing but he will eventually need surgery. Immediate care would be an assessment then elevation, ice, nsaids (nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs) then rest if with crutches. Because there is a time gap there is time to do something before surgery. There is swelling & inflammation, decreased range of motion and loss of mobility. Intensive rehabilitation after surgery would include: physiotherapy exercises, cryotherapy, muscle stimulation, maintain overall fitness (takes up to 6 months to recover) Psychological reaction to injury: there are a lot of negative reactions going on, and before positive reactions happens, we have to go through the negative ones. (this is natural) Injury-relevant processing: information about pain, extent of injury, how it happened, negative consequences: emotional upheaval & reactive behaviour: agitation, emotional depletion, isolation, shock, disbelief, denial, self-pity, positive outlook & coping: acceptance, coping efforts, optimism, relief with progress.
