Previously, the duration time of the three phases and the healing process is mentioned.
this is where it is determined how the activity that cells perform in lesions of the
tissues, or skin as an example, in the face of the healing process that can be noticed when
to suffer a cut, and see how it gets restored or heals over time,
and how, depending on the circumstances, the appearance of the scar changes.

Coagulation: the process by which blood loses its liquidity becoming a gel, for
to form a clot.
Collagen: a protein molecule or protein that forms fibers, providing structure to the skin and
strengthen the bones.
Fibroblasts: the most common type of cell found in connective tissue, secrete
collagen proteins.
Leukocytes: they are part of the body's immune system and help fight infections.
other diseases.
Macrophages: A type of white blood cell that surrounds microorganisms and destroys them, extracting the
dead cells and stimulates the action of other immune system cells.
Platelets: Blood cell of vertebrates, small and without a nucleus, that has a disc shape.
oval or round.
Tissue: animal and plant tissues, that is, an assembly of similar cells and their substance
intercellular, sharing the same function.
The repair of soft tissues: it is a natural process that the body possesses and
It consists of a complex process that occurs when the skin or other tissues are repaired.
after an accidental injury, illness or surgical intervention. In this event,
the affected tissue progresses through three sequential phases that follow a patterned evolution and
predictable. The inflammation phase prepares the wound for healing; the proliferation phase
rebuilds the structures and strengthens the wound; and the maturation or remodeling phase
it modifies the scar tissue to its mature form. The duration of each phase varies to some extent.
degree, and the phases generally overlap.
3. Duration:
· The inflammatory phase begins the moment the injury occurs, and usually lasts
2-3 days.
· The proliferative phase of tissue repair begins at the end of the inflammatory phase.
approximately on the 4th day after the injury occurs – and it usually lasts 3 weeks.
· The remodeling or maturation phase is the last phase and it can last for years.
always depending on the severity of the injury.
4. Phases:
a) Inflammatory phase: Upon suffering an injury or wound, a process automatically begins.
of hemorrhage, once it occurs and in some way the skin is exposed, it appears in the
focus of the lesion; contaminating or infectious agents that will seek to compromise or delay the
healing process of the damage done; for this a series of processes occur:
Vasoconstriction: It is when the blood vessels that are located in the wound and that
they could have been damaged, they contract, with the aim of reducing bleeding and stopping the
hemorrhage.
Following the process of vasoconstriction, the process of vasodilation occurs, which is all
the opposite.
Once all this has been done, automatically with the coagulation process, it
it stops the bleeding process, leukocytes or white blood cells will appear which are the
in charge of protecting the area of the injury and being vigilant to ensure that nothing occurs
infection in it.
b) Proliferative phase: It is characterized by the proliferation of fibroblasts in the area of the lesion.
which will be placed at each end of the wound on both sides to provide
start producing collagen and fibers, they will begin to intertwine, or to form like
a kind of net between each of the ends of the wound, with the aim of generating the
contraction of it, close it and allow what would properly be the scar. During this
It is very normal for the person to feel tension in the wound and to feel
pressure on her, since while the proliferative phase occurs, it somehow stretches the skin
and causes these symptoms to appear.
· Inflammatory phase: During the treatment in this phase of tissue repair it is necessary to
follow the RICE protocol. To obtain a concise diagnosis, it is recommended to perform
an ultrasound after 48 hours have passed since the injury occurred.
· Proliferative phase: During physical therapy treatment, in this phase, it is necessary to avoid the
fibrosis and loss of physical condition. Physical activity on a bicycle should be prescribed,
pool, elliptical… along with exercises progressing from isometric to concentric and
eccentrics starting with pain-free ranges of motion to evolve to
complete ranks.
Conclusion
After analyzing the information written in this work, it was observed that
For physiotherapists, it is essential to understand each process of tissue repair and know in what
what stage the patient is in at the time of the approach, as this will help us intervene
correctly when these injuries occur and take all necessary measures to
to be able to carry out a proper rehabilitation. It is also necessary to know the subject to clarify
any questions the patient may have.
Another fact that could be deduced is the difference between the tissue repair of the tissues.
bones and soft tissues, since on one hand, the bone tissues can be regenerated but on
through surgical techniques, while soft tissues respond naturally
as a kind of involuntary protection that the cells of our body perform, through
some complex processes that tend to take some time depending on the depth or
severity of the affected area.
