The diagnosis of blunt force trauma typically involves a combination of physical examination, imaging studies (such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs), and laboratory tests. Treatment varies based on the severity and location of the injury:
Minor Injuries: Often managed with rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE). Fractures: May require immobilization, casting, or surgical intervention. Internal Injuries: Might necessitate surgical repair and intensive care. Pain Management: Use of analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications.
