Aloha All,
I'm terribly sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I couldn't think of anyone else to ask.
I'm a kinesiology and rehab science student taking an "athletic injury prevention and rehabilitation" course, and my professor said something today that she danced around and avoided answering when I asked for further clarification.
"If swelling is present (presumably at the site of injury), surgery is to be avoided."
Why is this? I couldn't get a strait answer out of her, and my google-fu is apparently not strong enough to help me figure this out. Again, terribly sorry if this is not the place for this type of question, but I could use some help here. Thank you! 🙂
