II. Rationale: ( Max 2 pages) 

Muscle strain occurs from overstretched muscles and is common among sporting people. Symptoms include leg pain and mobility difficulties among others.

III. Patho: (Max 2 pages) 

Muscle strains cause excessive fiber stretching due to exertion of tensile force at the muscle. The pathophysiological process is characterized by destruction, repair and remodeling. Destruction involves tearing and myofibrils necrosis, creation of hematoma and division of inflammatory cells. Repair and remodeling phases involve necrotic tissue phagocytosis, myofibrils regeneration and concomitant development of connective scar tissue, neoformation of vessels and growth of neurons also occur MIXED UP SOAP NOTE – Nurs 5220 Advanced Health Assessment
