soft tissues

Soft tissues are the types of tissues in the body that include muscles, fat, blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissues like tendons and ligaments. They support and protect organs, enable movement, and help transport nutrients and signals throughout the body. Unlike bones, soft tissues are flexible and resilient, allowing for normal function and movement. They can be damaged or injured through trauma, overuse, or disease, which may lead to pain, swelling, or loss of function. Proper care and understanding of soft tissues are essential for overall health and mobility.
