Question 1 of 5
Which of the following terms refers to soft tissue injury caused by blunt force?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A contusion is a soft tissue injury caused by blunt force. It is an injury that does not break the skin, caused by a blow, and characterized by swelling, discoloration, and pain. The immediate application of cold might limit the development of a contusion. A strain is a muscle pull from overuse, overstretching, or excessive stress. A sprain is caused by a wrenching or twisting motion. A dislocation is a condition where the articular surfaces of the bones forming a joint are no longer in anatomical contact.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'contusion' as it specifically relates to soft tissue injury caused by blunt force.
