ANNA MARIE B. ACEDILLO 9-LEAD
Controlling the inflammatory response and minimizing discomfort are the main goals of soft tissue injury treatment
RICER (Rest, Ice, Compressions, Elevation Referral) is the immediate management for treating soft tissue injuries that is used for atleast the first 48 hours.
Good day sir, I need you to rest and stop moving first because it can increase swelling
To relieve discomfort and swelling surrounding the injury, put an ice pack in a cloth. Apply ice to the affected area for 15-20 minutes.
It hurts!
We need compression, I will use bandage to the area firmly
Let's keep the injured area elevated as much as possible. Let me place your leg on a chair to keep it above your hips.
Elevating the wounded body part allows gravity to assist in reducing the swelling of the affected tissue. It should not, however, be forced, especially if discomfort and loss of function indicate an underlying fracture.
The ambulance has arrived!
Good! He's here, and his injury is stabilized
Minor injury can disguise as fractures and dislocations. Such injuries can only be accurately diagnosed by a doctor
Thankyou!
