    Acute vs Chronic Health Conditions

    What is the Difference Between Acute and Chronic Conditions?

    Regardless of the specific structure affected, sports injuries can generally be classified in one of two ways: acute or chronic.

    Acute Injuries

    Acute injuries, such as a sprained ankle, strained back, or fractured hand, occur suddenly during activity. Signs of an acute injury include the following:

    1. sudden, severe pain
    2. swelling
    3. inability to place weight on a lower limb
    4. extreme tenderness in an upper limb
    5. inability to move a joint through its full range of motion
    6. extreme limb weakness
    7. visible dislocation or break of a bone

    Chronic Injuries

    Chronic injuries usually result from overusing one area of the body while playing a sport or exercising over a long period. The following are signs of a chronic injury:

    1. pain when performing an activity
    2. a dull ache when at rest
    3. swelling

    At Fit for Life Wellness & Rehabilitation Centre, we treat both Acute as well as Chronic conditions. We use a variety of treatment methods including electrotherapy, massage therapy, chiropractic care, nutrition, reiki, ultrasound therapy, laser therapy, soft tissue therapy and much more!
