Muscle Scar Tissue Hydrodissection
Understanding Muscle Scar Tissue Formation Better
When muscles are damaged due to an injury or trauma, the body starts responding by creating scar tissues as a part of the healing process. This tissue lacks flexibility and can cause poor muscle function, leading to chronic pain, less movement and muscle weakness. Eventually, scar tissue can become an obstacle to recovery, which limits athletes from becoming their best version.
Scar tissue formation within muscle fibres is a common acute trauma, injury, or recurring strain phenomenon. These adhesions, a natural part of the healing process, can hinder muscle functioning, resulting in pain, stiffness, and reduced movement. Identifying and treating this scar tissue is essential in restoring muscle performance and relieving discomfort. Muscle scar tissue hydro dissection is one effective treatment that has shown remarkable results for many.
How Diagnosis Works with Real-Time Ultrasound?
Diagnosing scar tissue within muscles can be challenging without the appropriate tools. Real-time ultrasound assessment plays an important role in identifying problems within the muscle fibres. Ultrasound imaging allows healthcare professionals like us to identify the actual point and extent of the scar tissue.
The Hydro dissection Technique – Explained
This specialised technique releases scar tissue within muscles to restore normalcy and eliminate pain. The procedure uses a fine, thin needle guided by ultrasound to enter the scar tissue directly. Once the needle is at the correct position, a saline solution mixed with a local anaesthetic is injected into the affected area. This fluid peels the scar tissue away from the surrounding healthy muscle fibres, breaking down the scar tissue and enhancing the movement of the affected muscle.
Stimulate Healing with Additional Injections
The healing process can be further pushed by injecting anti-inflammatory medications or platelet-rich plasma. These additional injections at the hydro-dissected spot help to reduce inflammation, enhance healing and improve muscle functioning and mobility.
Hydro Dissection Experience and Recovery
A common issue with any procedure that uses needles is the chance of pain or discomfort. To everyone’s surprise, patients who underwent this muscle scar tissue hydro dissection experienced very little pain until the end of the procedure. The right blend of local anaesthetic with the fluid injection reduces the discomfort, making the procedure highly tolerable.
Usually, patients recover quickly, which improves muscle function and reduces pain. After this procedure, we advise our patients to exercise light to promote muscle flexibility and strength.
Muscle scar tissue hydro dissection offers minimal invasion and is highly effective for individuals suffering from muscle pain and dysfunction. If you are an athlete recovering from an injury or acute muscle pain, hydro dissection can be a life-changing treatment to regain muscle health and functionality.
