Patients with closed soft tissue injuries can be managed in the following ways: 1. If symptoms are mild, improvement can be achieved through ice application, and elevation of the affected limb may also help alleviate symptoms. 2. If symptoms are more severe, anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications may be used appropriately under a physician’s guidance to facilitate recovery.
