Overview

 

A sprain causes pain, swelling and discolouration (blue colouring). This happens because the small blood vessels and fibres in the flesh burst, causing blood to enter the surrounding tissue. This results in swelling and the blue colouring.

It is the same principle with a bruise: the skin is exposed to such a hard blow that the blood vessels break.




Causes

 

Ask yourself what caused your accident and focus on the cause. Note that the following information is a very rough guide: if in doubt, consult a doctor.

  • Running too quickly?
  • Exercising without any warm-up or stretching exercises?
  • Running, working out or playing sport without the proper shoes?
  • Running on hard or uneven surfaces?
  • Are any of your muscles overcompensating for weakness in another - for instance, due to a bad knee?

Risk Factors

 During an addisonian crisis, low blood pressure, low blood glucose, and high levels of potassium can be life threatening.
