Q.12.What are soft tissue injuries? Explain any two.
Ans. Soft tissue injuries are the most common injury in sports. Soft tissue refers to tissues that connect, support or surround other structures and organs of the body. Types of soft tissue injury.
1. Contusion
2. strain
3. sprain
4. Abrasion
5. Bruises.
1. Sprain is a stretched or torn ligament. Ligaments are tissues that connect bones at a joint falling, twisting, or getting hit can all cause a sprain. Ankle and wrist sprains are common. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising and being unable to move your joint. You might feel a pop or tear when the injury happens.
2. Strain is a stretched or torn muscle or tendon. Tendons are tissues that connect muscle to bone. Twisting or pulling these tissues can cause a strain. Strains can happen suddenly or develop over time. Back and hamstring muscle strains are common. Many people get strains playing sports. Symptoms include pain, muscle spasms, swelling and trouble moving the muscle.

Q.13. What is dislocation? define any two.
Ans. A dislocation occurs when 2 bones are out of place of the joint that connects them. Dislocation may also cause injury to nerves and blood vessels. Joints that become dislocated and later heal are more likely to become dislocated again. Types of Dislocation includes.
1. Shoulder dislocation:- The shoulder joint is the most frequently dislocated major joint of the body. In a typical case of a dislocated shoulder, a strong force that pulls the shoulder outward (abduction) or extreme rotation of the joint pops the ball of the humerus out of the shoulder socket. Dislocation commonly occurs when there is a backward pull on the arm that either catches the muscles unprepared to resist or overwhelms the muscles.
2. Hip dislocation:- It occurs when the head of the thigh bone (femur) is forced out of its socket in the hip bone (pelvis). It typically takes a major force to dislocate the hip. Car collisions and falls from significant height are common causes and as a result, other injuries like broken bones often occur with the dislocation.
