What is Soft Tissue?
‘Soft tissue’ refers to the tissues and type of body structures that connect, surround or support your internal organs and bones.
Soft tissue includes muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia (superficial and deep), nerves, fibrous tissues, fluids (blood, lymph, interstitial fluid), fat, blood vessels, synovial membranes, and more.
What is a Soft Tissue Injury?
Soft tissue injuries are the most common type of injury in sports. They are not as serious as a bone fracture, but they can still cause discomfort and pain.
A soft tissue injury is an injury to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, or other tissues in the body that are not bones. These injuries can range from a sprain or strain to a tear or rupture of a tendon.
