When you encounter a soft tissue injury, the treatment needs to be tailored to the actual situation. The first step is to determine the type of injury, whether it is acute or chronic, closed or open. For acute open injuries, first of all, the scene temporary bandage to stop bleeding and other first aid treatment, because its open wounds are often accompanied by wound contamination, there is the possibility of secondary infection, so after the scene of first aid must be as soon as possible to the hospital for wound debridement treatment.
Closed soft tissue injuries do not have open wounds, so care should be taken to avoid missing the diagnosis. The key to on-the-spot management is to determine whether there is a closed injury and to take the necessary steps to alleviate the pain of the casualty, and to avoid further aggravation of the injury by improper handling. Less severe closed injuries generally do not require hospital treatment, and most will improve on their own after proper management. For more severe injuries with significant symptoms or deformities in the joint area, early access to hospital for further treatment is required.
