Question 15 • Sports Medicine 1b
A closed injury means the skin is not broken, so cleaning a wound or giving a tetanus shot is not the appropriate treatment. The elbow should be immobilized to limit movement, and ice can help reduce pain and swelling. Cutting the fascia is an emergency procedure for severe pressure, not routine sideline care; applying heat is also not the usual immediate treatment.
