Level#1

One important health skill is managing minor illness or injuries on your own. A common injury to muscles is a pulled muscle. A pulled muscle is actually small tears in the muscle. These tears cause pain and swelling.

1. What is an example of an important health skill?





2. What is a common injury to muscles?





3. What is a pulled muscle and what does it cause?








Level#2

One important health skill is managing minor illness or injuries on your own. A common injury to muscles is a pulled muscle. A pulled muscle is actually small tears in the muscle. These tears cause pain and swelling. The amount of pain depends on the amount the muscle has torn. Some pulled muscles must be treated by a doctor. If you have a pulled muscle that causes severe pain and you cannot move the muscle at all, see a doctor immediately.

1. What is an example of a common injury that happens to muscles?





2. What is a pulled muscle and what do the tears in the muscle cause?





3. What determines the amount of pain of a pulled muscle?












Level#3

These tears cause pain and swelling. The amount of pain depends on the amount the muscle has torn. Some pulled muscles must be treated by a doctor. If you have a pulled muscle that causes severe pain and you cannot move the muscle at all, see a doctor immediately. Most pulled muscles can be treated at home. There are a few steps you can follow to manage a pulled muscle on your own. First, you must take steps to limit the swelling by applying ice to the muscle for 15 to 20 minutes. Leave the ice off for 20 minutes before applying it again. You also need to protect the injured muscle by resting it. Wrapping an elastic bandage over the area will also help reduce the swelling. Elevating the injured muscle above the level of the heart will also help to reduce the swelling.

1. Explain what a pulled muscle is, what the tears in the muscle cause, and what will determine how painful the injured muscle will be.







2. Explain the situation that would require  person to see a doctor for a pulled muscle.

Level#1


Suppose you lost control of your muscles little by little. This is what happens to people with Muscular Dystrophy, also called MD. MD is a disease that causes the muscles to waste away over time. It is a rare disease. Most children that have MD end up in wheelchairs or on crutches. At this time, doctors do not know what causes MD, but they are working on treatments for it.

1. What happens to a person with Muscular Dystrophy?




2. What does MD cause?




3. What happens to most children that have MD?





4. What does Dill say he can do even though he is just seven years old?






Level#2

Suppose you lost control of your muscles little by little. This is what happens to people with Muscular Dystrophy, also called MD. MD is a disease that causes the muscles to waste away over time. It is a rare disease. Most children that have MD end up in wheelchairs or on crutches. At this time, doctors do not know what causes MD, but they are working on treatments for it. The most common muscle problem is sore muscles. The soreness is caused by muscles not getting enough oxygen during exercise. Also, muscles have to get rid of wastes when exercising. By exercising regularly, your body learns to pump enough oxygen to your muscles. In time, the soreness disappears. Stretching after exercising, or "cooling down," will help lessen the pain of sore muscles.

1. What is Muscular Dystrophy and what happens to most children that have MD?





2. What is the most common muscle problem and what causes it to happen?





3. What can help lessen the pain of sore muscles?





4. What season does Dill come to visit with Scout and Jem every year?

Stretching after exercising, or "cooling down," will help lessen the pain of sore muscles. Muscle strains are also common. A muscle is strained when it has been worked too hard. The muscle tissues are stretched and sometimes torn. To treat a strained muscle, get plenty of rest. Apply ice first. After 48 hours, put warm, wet towels on the muscles every chance you get.
