[ 3 ] At the location of the fracture, there is an increase in compartment pressure that is found around the area in limbs where blisters do not form and a fasciotomy is not performed, versus in those where the blisters are found.
A soft tissue injury is the damage of muscles, ligaments and tendons throughout the body. Common soft tissue injuries usually occur from a sprain, strain, a one-off blow resulting in a contusion or overuse of a particular part of the body.
